Does anyone have information about swimwear manufacturer?

cortanafd

Im an assistant designer for a high end swimsuit company and im desperate need to find a manufacturer and sample maker. Manufacturer preferred out of the country and sample maker preferred in NYC. If you know anyone or information about this that would be great.

Answer
If you are looking for swimwear manufacturer then you are best to focus on South America or the Far East.

I have previouslyt bought swimwear from a firm in South East Asia, though it was a bulk order. They were called Latasia Company Limited in Thailand. They claim to specilise in swimwear and got me some good quality stock. However, there are hundreds of sources for swimwear so you should be able to find one no problem.

Be careful with your designs though. You need to find a reputable company that is not going to steal your designs and sell on to others. Lots of Asian factories will rip of your intellectual property. But it is part of the fashion world!

Good luck with your hunt and with your launch.

Need some help (Swimwear)?

Safera

Okay, I need a new swim-suit, but I'm not too sure on what to look for.
Here's some things you should know:

- I'm pretty small, so a small junior's size fits best with me.

- I'd like something that's like a bikini, only not too showy. Like a Tankini/Halterkini with MAYBE boy shorts.

- I prefer some dark colors. Navy blue. I realize that some of you might say that "Dark colors will make me look smaller than I already am" but I think I can deal with that. =]

- I need to be able to find it in a store in a very small town. Just somewhere like Dillards, Kohl's, Sears, etc. So not too fancy so I'll have to travel out of town to shop.


I need to know what I should be looking for, and where I could possibly look. =]

Thanks!
Oh, and I have black hair, so /some/ colors like bright yellow, etc. might not work for me.

Otherwise, I like the ones so far. =]
