Product & Customization Overview
The Vanuatu rayon lace hollow-out resort maxi dress (style DR017-9f4e) is a long dress developed for South Pacific resort settings. It uses viscose / rayon as the main fabric with lace hollow-out detailing, making it relevant for wholesalers in Australia and New Zealand as well as retailers and resort gift buyers in Fiji, Samoa and Tonga. As a resort wear dress, the procurement decision should focus on fit, fabric GSM, size grading and print customization rather than unit price alone.
We hold around 100 resort dress styles in stock, with a 50-piece minimum per style per color; mixed styles and colors can be discussed. This structure suits small trial orders and fast replenishment: buyers can test prints and silhouettes in their market with limited capital, then reorder based on sell-through. For resort and hotel gift procurement, mixed styles and colors are especially useful for seasonal themes or room-tier differentiation.
Design & Pattern Details
Silhouette and construction
- Maxi length, suitable for tropical resort settings, island weddings and festive wear, and generally well received in Australia and Pacific island markets.
- Lace hollow-out detailing sits at visual focal points; confirm how the openwork aligns with lining so it does not show through or disrupt drape.
- Structural details such as straps, waist ties and side slits can be adjusted for the target market; adjustable straps and waist ties help cover adjacent sizes and reduce size gaps at retail.
- Neckline and sleeve type can be adjusted in OEM/ODM, for example square neck, V-neck, halter or off-shoulder, and spaghetti strap, puff sleeve or ruffle sleeve; confirm via sampling.
Prints and colorways
- South Pacific resort prints are the core selling point, including tropical florals, island motifs and Polynesian-style elements.
- Custom print from your artwork is supported; digital printing has no plate fee and samples can be ready in 3-5 days, which suits brands and boutiques developing exclusive colorways.
- The same print can be paired with sarongs and hairbands as a bundle to raise average order value and support resort gift sets.
Material, GSM & Quality
The main fabric is viscose / rayon, usually in the 120-150gsm range, with good drape and quick-dry performance for tropical climates. Composition and GSM can be specified for the target market: Australia and New Zealand buyers often prioritize drape and breathability, while Pacific island markets focus more on quick-dry and wash durability. For lace hollow-out sections, pay attention to edge finishing and colorfastness; confirm shrinkage and colorfastness test standards with the factory before bulk.
- Rayon main fabric, 120-150gsm, composition and GSM can be specified by market.
- Confirm digital print colorfastness and shrinkage against target-market standards; run a wash test before bulk.
- Lining and opacity treatment should be confirmed against openwork placement; maxi lengths need particular attention to lower-body show-through.
Size Grading & Fit
Size grading for resort maxi dresses must consider both silhouette and print layout. Proportional grading alone can shift lace openwork placement and stretch prints at the bust and waist. We recommend segmented grading against the target market size chart, with separate handling for plus size fits: when sizing up, keep the print repeat intact and adjust openwork density and waist position as needed. Adjustable straps and waist ties can cover adjacent sizes within a range but should not replace proper grading. Confirm the size chart and grading rules with the factory during sampling.
MOQ, Sampling & Lead Time
- Stock wholesale: 50 pieces per style per color; mixed styles and colors can be discussed, suitable for small trial orders and fast replenishment.
- Custom print: digital printing with no plate fee, samples in 3-5 days, suitable for brands and boutiques developing exclusive prints.
- OEM/ODM: modify neckline, sleeve type, length and trims; custom main labels, care labels and hang tags. Sampling and bulk lead times depend on style complexity.
- We suggest starting with a small trial order to validate the market, then replenishing based on sell-through to reduce inventory risk.
FOB Pricing & Payment
Stock wholesale pricing is tiered by order quantity, usually in the RMB 19-29 per piece range, calculated by style, GSM and quantity. Custom print and OEM/ODM orders involve sampling, trims and process adjustments, so they are quoted separately. Payment terms and trade terms can be discussed based on order scale; we recommend specifying in the contract whether sampling and sample fees are deductible from bulk orders, along with packaging and shipping mark requirements.
