Bags for Fashion Designers

Your Creative Vision, Our Technical Manufacturing

As a fashion designer, your bag is not just an accessory—it’s a physical expression of your brand DNA, your aesthetic language, and your storytelling.

You might start with a rough sketch, a moodboard, a 3D render, or a single reference bag you love. But between that idea and a finished, sellable product, there is a long technical path:

Patterns and internal structure
Correct material selection
Hardware choice and proportion
Edge finishing and construction techniques
Functional details like closures and pockets
Comfort in hand and on the body

Lovrix acts as the bridge between your creative world and the realities of manufacturing. We help designers at all stages:

Emerging designers building their first bag collection
Established brands adding a new category
Streetwear labels moving into accessories
Luxury labels who need intricate craftsmanship

What Fashion Designers Really Need from a Bag Manufacturer

Fashion designers don’t think like corporate procurement teams. Your priorities are different—and so is the way we support you.

Respect for Creative Vision

We do not “simplify away” your identity.
We aim to preserve silhouette, character, and proportions while making it manufacturable.
When we suggest changes, we explain the technical reason (e.g. weight, stress point, distortion, cost).

Ability to Work from Designer Inputs

We can start from:

Hand sketches
Technical sketches (front/side/top)
3D renderings
Reference photos
Existing physical samples
Written design briefing + moodboard

Small and Flexible Quantities

Designers often need:

1–3 prototypes for development
5–30 samples for shoot / showroom / buyers
50–200 pcs to test market response
Later, 300–3,000+ pcs when a style takes off

Lovrix supports this full lifecycle.

Honest Feedback & Co-Creation

You don’t just want “yes” for everything—you want:

Honest feasibility feedback
Suggestions on how to achieve your idea in real materials
Advice on thickness, stiffness, weight, and wearability
Guidance on how details will age over time

Consistency and Repeatability

Once you’ve approved a sample, you need:

Identical production pieces
Stable material supply
Reliable color and hardware finish across batches
Patterns and processes stored for future reorders

Lovrix Development Workflow for Fashion Designers

We can help you develop almost any bag type—simple or experimental.

Step 1

Design Brief & Intake

You send us:

Sketches (hand-drawn or digital)
Reference photos or moodboards
Intended materials (if you have preferences)
Target retail positioning (premium, luxury, streetwear, etc.)
Functional requirements (size, number of pockets, specific usage)
Rough price level you want to hit (so we can engineer accordingly)

We may ask:

Do you prioritize look, function, or cost?
Is this for runway, capsule collection, or commercial line?
How many colors/variations do you want?

Step 2

Technical Interpretation & Suggestions

Our team:

Interprets your sketches into rough construction logic
Identifies key pattern pieces
Highlights potential stress points or distortion risks
Suggests small technical adjustments (if necessary) to keep the design practical and durable

We share back:

Comments on proportion, edge construction, and hardware feasibility
Material & thickness suggestions
Notes on where reinforcement is required

Step 3

Pattern Making & Internal Structure

Pattern making includes:

Drafting the main body, flap, side gussets, base, pockets, and handles
Determining seam allowances and turn-in dimensions
Deciding which edges are folded vs painted vs bound
Planning reinforcements (e.g. interlining, stiffeners, foam)
Working around hardware placements (locks, handles, rings)

The result is a set of patterns that define how the bag will be built.

Step 4

Material Confirmation

We either:

Work with material choices you specify, or
Propose options matching your aesthetic + budget

We confirm:

Outer material (leather, PU, canvas etc.)
Lining fabric and color
Hardware design and plating color
Edge paint color
Thread color and stitch length

Step 5

First Prototype

Purpose:

Validate size, silhouette, and proportion on the body
Check the feel of the handles/strap in hand and on shoulder
Assess internal volume and pocket layout
See how the bag stands, slouches, or drapes

At this stage, we encourage strong feedback:

Too big / too small?
Any distortion on panels?
Handles comfortable enough?
Closure smooth and secure?

Step 6

Revised Prototype

We refine:

Proportions (height, width, depth adjustments)
Curve shapes (flaps, gussets, cutouts)
Edge finishing (thicker/thinner, more refined)
Stitch placement (closer to edge, decorative lines)
Logo placement and scale
Internal organization improvements

This usually results in a production-ready design.

Step 7

Pre-Production Sample (Final Approval)

The PPS (Pre-Production Sample) is made with:

Final materials
Final hardware
Final labels/branding
Final construction methods

This is your master reference sample for mass production.

Step 8

Production & Scaling

You can choose:

Small batch (e.g. 50–200 pcs per color) for niche or premium runs
Larger blocks (300–3,000+ pcs per color) for commercial rollout

Lovrix sets up:

Cutting and sewing instructions based on your approved sample
QC standards and tolerances
Packing details (dust bags, boxes, tissue, labels, etc.)

Travel Bag Types Lovrix Manufactures

Lovrix produces full travel category lines for all industry segments.

Edge Construction

You can specify:

Painted edges in 1, 2 or 3 coats with sanding in between
Folded edges for a softer, luxury look
Raw cut edges with sealing for a contemporary aesthetic
Edge thickness and profile (thin sleek vs thicker and bold)

Stitching Details

Options include:

Single stitch with subtle visibility
Double lines for a more graphic or sporty look
Decorative top-stitching in contrast color
Quilt patterns and stitched motifs
Stitch length (fine vs more visible)

Structure vs Softness

We can tune the handfeel:

Fully structured: boards + stiffeners create sharp lines
Semi-structured: some support, but still soft on edges
Soft and unstructured: minimal stiffeners, draped silhouette

We adjust interlining, foam, and reinforcements to match your brand feel.

Branding & Signature Codes

You can:

Create a custom-shaped logo plate
Use embossed/debossed logo patches
Integrate subtle monogram details on lining or zipper pulls
Use unique stitching motifs as a brand signature
Specify custom-shaped hardware (custom rings, buckles, locks)

Small-Batch, Capsule Collections & Runway Projects

Lovrix is comfortable working with:

Capsule collections (2–10 styles with limited runs)
Special runway or editorial pieces
Graduate collections and first-time designer launches
Limited editions & collaborations

We can:

Produce prototypes for lookbooks and photoshoots
Deliver small pre-collections for buyer/retail review
Adjust patterns based on showroom feedback
Scale up hero styles when they perform well

Quality Control Tailored to Fashion Designer Bags

Our QC for designer bags focuses strongly on aesthetics and construction.

We check:

Symmetry of the bag from all angles
Alignment of seams, panels, and straps
Evenness of stitch lines (no wandering)
Edge paint smoothness and coverage
Correct hardware color and plating quality
Smooth functioning of zippers, locks, magnets
Internal cleanliness (no excess glue, threads, or stains)
Consistency between pieces in a batch

If you have your own brand QC checklist, we can integrate it into our process.
