FAQ - Production and Maintainance
All you want to know on how we produce our PodSkirts, what materials we use, and how you can maintain your PodSkirt.
- How are the PodSkirts made?
All of our PodSkirts are handmade. How else would we provide limited edition products ;) No strange setups, no child labour. Just us, working our butts off.- Where do the fabrics come from?
To ensure you of ever-renewing designs and fabrics, we found a magnificent high-standard supplier for all our fabrics:
Les Tissus du Chien Vert is this extraordinary charming fabrics supplier with a great establishment in Brussels (Belgium). And in many other towns.
They offer a permanent supply of almost 160.000 meters of fabrics. Fabrics for different purposes ranging from confection or decoration, over furniture, to technical fabrics. They have it all.For more info, don't hesitate to visit their site at www.chienvert.com
- How do you select your fabrics?
Basically we just pay a visit to our favorite fabrics store and stroll around in there for half a day or so. Our supplier has such a wide range of fabrics that half a day not really covers it, but since we work in limited editions, that's no problem. As the collection grows we'll have seen it all.
We mix and match fabrics to eventually obtain a style we like. A style that recalls a certain 'theme'. Say... err... golfing for example. We let ourselves be inspired by everything we see around us.
After picking a couple of good matching fabrics we tend to let ourselves be informed on the different aspects of the fabrics. That way we know what to put on the maintenance label we ship with your PodSkirt.
