Product & Customization Overview
This strawberry print square neck smocked ruffle short sleeve mini dress (style DR030-da6d) sits in the resort wear dress category, suited to tropical climates and holiday retail. For procurement decision-makers, the key questions are: does the silhouette match your customer base, does the fabric suit hot and humid conditions, how flexible is customization for brand differentiation, and do MOQ and replenishment speed fit your sales rhythm?
We hold 100 resort dress styles in stock, with a 50-piece minimum per style per color. Mixed styles and colors are negotiable, making this suitable for small trial orders and fast replenishment. For ANZ wholesalers and Pacific island retailers, this means you can test the market with lower inventory risk and then scale based on sell-through.
Design & Pattern Details
Silhouette & Construction
- Square neck with puff short sleeves: the square neckline frames the collarbone, while puff sleeves add shoulder volume for a sweet resort look that appeals to younger customers and family buyers.
- Smocked bodice: no zipper, easy on and off, with good tolerance for bust variation, which can help reduce size-related returns.
- Ruffle hem and mini length: the short length suits beach, pool party and resort settings. For more conservative markets, the length can be customized to midi or maxi.
Print & Colorways
The strawberry print uses digital printing, with strong color saturation and clear detail. Digital printing carries no plate fee and samples can be produced in 3-5 days, making it practical for brands testing exclusive artwork in small runs. If you want regional motifs such as Pacific island florals or Australian botanicals, you can supply artwork or work with us on color adjustments.
The same print can be paired with a matching sarong or hairband for set sales, lifting average order value. For resort and hotel gift buyers, sets also work well for welcome amenities or gift shop retail.
Material, GSM & Quality
The main fabric is viscose / rayon at 120-150gsm, with good drape and quick-dry performance for tropical climates. This GSM range balances light weight with opacity, but whether lining is needed depends on print depth and your anti-see-through requirements. Please confirm at sampling stage.
- Composition and GSM can be specified: adjust to your market, for example a higher GSM for more structure or a lower GSM for a floatier hand feel.
- Colorfastness and shrinkage: rayon should be tested under standard care conditions. Test reports can be requested before bulk production; please confirm specific standards with the factory.
- Quality control: print alignment, seam neatness and smocking uniformity are checked in pre-production samples and final inspection.
Size Grading & Fit
This style follows a standard women's size range, and the smocked bodice offers good size tolerance. For plus size ranges, take care that grading keeps the print composition intact and avoids unnatural pattern distortion or repetition. We recommend providing your target market size chart so the factory can adjust to your specification.
- Standard sizes can be adjusted to ANZ and Pacific island market habits; please confirm the size chart with the factory.
- For plus size, separate sampling is recommended, focusing on bust, waist and length proportions.
- Adjustable straps, waist ties and side slits can be added or removed, but the impact on fit and cost should be assessed.
MOQ, Sampling & Lead Time
- Stock wholesale: 50 pieces per style per color, mixed styles and colors negotiable, suitable for small trial orders and fast replenishment.
- Custom printing: digital printing with no plate fee, samples in 3-5 days; bulk lead time depends on order quantity and fabric availability, please confirm scheduling with the factory.
