Luxury Handbag Guides — Page 23
This index collects every luxury handbag sourcing and production guide we publish for designer labels, maisons, boutiques and importers: specification, sampling, production, quality control and export. All figures come from our own programme work: MOQ 500 pcs per style, sampling 6-10 working days, bulk production 35-50 days, AQL 2.5 to ISO 2859-1.
Use the index to move from a handbag concept to a quotable, producible specification. Each guide is written for the person who has to place the order, not for a shopper.
