For apparel concepts that are ready to move beyond concept translation into prototype sample development.

This package helps turn a submitted garment idea, sketch, AI visual, or reference-based concept into one physical prototype sample within the selected package scope.

Includes:
• Case Opening Review
• Technical translation within the purchased package scope
• Pattern and construction direction
• Material, trim, fit, or development considerations where appropriate
• One prototype sample within the selected package scope
• Fit, construction, and development notes
• Up to 2 revision rounds within the confirmed scope
• Recommended next pathway after prototype review

Choose your complexity band:

D — Complex / Formal / Fantasy

This package includes standard material allowance and prototype work within the selected complexity band.

Premium lace, specialty hardware, embroidery, unusual fabrics, complex trims, special surface treatments, additional samples, shipping, or higher-cost materials may require a Pathform Service Supplement before later stages continue.
