Creative Worldwide · FAQ
Lead times, categories, where we're based, and how to order: the questions wholesale buyers ask most.
Twelve answers
We develop first samples in as little as 7–14 days, using our New York studio together with our partner facilities in Greater China, so your line keeps moving.
All sizes and styles. Sweaters and knitwear are where we started; since 2024 the line also carries cut-and-sew knits and wovens (tops, shirts, dresses, sets, skirts, bottoms, and outerwear) for women's and better contemporary, juniors, girls, and boys, plus men's knits and sweaters. One partner for the whole family, and the whole closet.
Through your buyer portal: browse the full collection, build wishlists and custom lists, request samples, and follow your orders. Always current, no PDFs to chase. Sign in, or request access if you are new.
Both. That's the point. The portal lets you browse the line, build your buy, and track orders on your own time, but you are never on your own. Reach our team in the portal, by email, or on the phone; the old-fashioned way is always welcome.
We are based in New York, but we come to you. We travel to meet clients in their home cities and bring the rack with us, so you can see and feel the line in person, and you are always welcome at our New York showroom by appointment.
We are anchored in New York City, with a Guangzhou office that sources yarns, fabrics, and trims, and production partners across China, Vietnam, and Cambodia (sweaters throughout the Guangzhou and Dongguan regions). Distribution centers on both US coasts get product to your DC from the nearer one.
Since 1991: more than three decades designing and manufacturing knitwear for major U.S. retailers, and since 2024 the cut-and-sew knits and wovens that complete the line.
Our partner factories give us capacity for up to 600,000 units a month on digital flat-knitting machines from 3.5 to 18 gauge, and the line turns over constantly: 150+ new styles every 6–8 weeks, with samples and knitdowns back in as little as 7–14 days.
Yes. Our partner factories are audited under amfori BSCI, WRAP, and SCAN, our recycled yarns come from Global Recycled Standard-certified mills, and our own inspectors check every stage of production: pre-production, in-line, and final. For a specific program's compliance requirements, reach out and we'll walk you through it.
Our knitwear sells at retailers including Nordstrom, Bloomingdale's, TJ Maxx, Stitch Fix, Rent the Runway, Buckle, Maurices, Ross, Von Maur, and Dillard's.
Full-service support from concept to floor-ready delivery: design & sampling, fit & pattern making, programming, production, quality inspection, and shipping. We can also develop exclusive yarns and styles just for you.
Every program is different. Reach out and we'll walk you through minimums, terms, and compliance for your assortment. We stay current with EDI and the electronic shipping requirements major retailers expect.
