Your Collection, Our Process
Every project at LAB55 is managed with care, from concept to final production. Our goal is to ensure each collection is developed with quality, design fidelity, and alignment with the brand’s identity.

1
It all starts with a conversation
It all starts with a free online meeting.
At this stage, we aim to understand your idea and concept, target audience, and brand goals, while aligning expectations and creative guidelines for the collection’s development.
2
Planning Every Detail
Based on the information gathered during the meeting, we prepare a detailed budget.
This can cover the entire process, from creation to production, or be structured in stages.
3
Turning Ideas into Pieces
During the creation and development phase, we hold a follow-up meeting to define concepts and the target audience.
Based on this briefing, we begin developing the authorial design, researching materials, and preparing the collection’s technical sheets.
4
Carefully Selecting Materials
We select fabrics and LAB55 partner suppliers that best fit the collection’s concept, ensuring quality and a diverse range of options.
5
Prototyping That Makes a Difference
We develop samples and digital mock-ups, refining proportions, fit, and finish.
This stage is essential to ensure each piece is perfect before full-scale production.
6
Refinements to Perfection
After reviewing the prototypes, we make the necessary adjustments until reaching the final approved version, ensuring every detail aligns with the brand’s identity and concept.
7
Closely Supervised Production
With all materials and patterns approved, we begin production with LAB55’s manufacturing partners.
Each batch is closely monitored to maintain quality standards and design fidelity.
8
Pieces Ready to Reach the World
Every piece undergoes a thorough quality check before packaging and shipping.
We then handle packaging and logistics, ensuring each product reaches the final customer in perfect condition.
