Women's All Season Velvet Bazin African Two-Piece Set

When a buyer asks us to develop “women's all season velvet bazin african two piece set”, the first conversation is never about price. It is about what the garment has to survive: a wedding season, a church calendar, a two-week festival run, or a shoot with eight hours of wear in it.

In practical terms this is a two-piece set in bazin riche built for women, scheduled against all-season programmes. Bazin is a damask-finished cotton with a dry, papery hand and a strong sheen. It takes embroidery and stone-work beautifully but creases hard, so it is usually shipped folded with tissue rather than hung. A two-piece set is bought as one look and worn as two garments, so both pieces have to stand alone. Matching the print across the join is the first decision, not the last.

The size run is the first commercial decision: a four-size run sells a test order, a ten-size run sells a container. An all-season programme only holds together if the shell is a stable, repeatable base cloth rather than a seasonal novelty.

What Has To Be Specified

• Shell: bazin riche, weight and hand approved on a physical swatch, not on a screen.
• Block: two-piece set, fitted on a real model at the middle size before grading.
• Colour: name the colourway and give a reference swatch. “African print” is not a colour; a lab dip checked under D65 and TL84 is.
• Lining: state unlined, half-lined or fully lined. This single line changes the hand, the packing and the cost.
• Closure: name the type and the position. “Back zip” is not a specification; “invisible zip, CB, 55 cm, self-fabric guard” is.
• Sizing: give the size run, the grade rule and the target fit model. A four-size test and a ten-size container run are two different projects.
• Trim and hardware: bead, cord, eyelet or feather, with a colour reference and a pull-strength requirement for anything on a children's style.

Two rolls of the same colour name will not match. Buy one lot, keep a roll reference with the order, and cut the whole run from it.

The first sample usually passes on the mannequin and fails on a body: the waist sits high, the armhole cuts, or the sweep is 4 cm short. Fit on a real model before you approve anything.

Options We Can Build To

• Closure: invisible zip, exposed zip, button placket or lace-up, each with its own sample requirement.
• Shell swap: the same block in a lighter or heavier version of the base cloth, priced separately.
• Trim: embroidered, beaded or plain, with the density quoted per panel rather than per garment.
• Closure: invisible zip, exposed zip, button placket or lace-up, each with its own sample requirement.

Pre-production sample approval, in-line inspection during cutting and sewing, and a final AQL inspection before packing, with measurement reports and photos shared before shipment.
