About our Company
Globalfashionmodel
Globalfashionmodel was founded in 2000, after years of experience in emerging fashion-tech ventures and gaining a deep interest in redefining supply chains beyond the industry's mainstream norms. The company has actively operated throughout North America, the Middle East, and parts of Latin America, viewing the entire globe as a seamless creative landscape.
Our management teams offer customized services to sustainable brands, digital fashion startups, and boutique manufacturers. We craft strategic solutions aimed at maximizing innovation, optimizing resource use, managing operational risk, and ensuring impactful growth before contractual finalizations. Our professionals have established strong ties with major fashion and education bodies, including mentoring programs at Esmod Dubai, partnerships with Toronto School of Fashion, and guest speaking roles at the Fashion Institute of Latin America.
From its inception, Globalfashionmodel has been built on meaningful relationships and inclusive development — always with a sense of style, but defined by its unique forward-thinking approach. Ethical production is used as a tool to foster community and creativity. We protect brands, uplift skilled artisans, and collaborate with small to large-scale production houses across continents, bridging gaps between cultures in South America, Africa, the Middle East, and Europe. Our mission is to unite underrepresented workshops and modern factories with global fashion houses, contributing to a more connected and conscious industry.
Since 2011, the company has established over 20 hubs and satellite studios across key creative territories — from remote artisan villages to buzzing design capitals — with expert teams curated not just to serve, but to inspire. From the beginning, Globalfashionmodel set out not only to build a company, but to shape a legacy. Today, after nearly fifteen years, Globalfashionmodel continues to stand as both a bridge and a guardian for forward-thinking brands, powered by a global network that’s daring, diverse, visionary, and strategically agile. Globalfashionmodel walks the fine line between commerce and culture — navigating trends, safeguarding brand identities, and pushing creative limits. By linking vision-driven brands to our extensive ecosystem of craft innovators, ethical suppliers, and cultural disruptors in overlooked regions, we unlock new access to global markets like never before. These pathways do more than open doors — they spark transformation, drive sustainable income, and elevate craftsmanship — all while empowering brands to fulfill their boldest ambitions on the world stage.

FAQ
Here are answers to some of our most asked questions relating to our services.
What we do?
Globalfashionmodel is very careful when choosing business partners. We believe in an industry that, besides profit, also values the environment, the people who they work with, creativity and innovation.
What is the process?
- To start, we will schedule an Intro Chat to understand your needs and answer any questions you may have.

- Product Development conversation with a member of our Production team to discuss your designs and complete your factory handover sheet.
- Sample stage: you will receive and review your samples

Are you able to source recycled fabrics?
Yes! Ethical and sustainable fashion is our priority, and we’re able to source any fabrics you may need.
What are your Minimum Order Quantities?
At Globalfashionmodel, we do not have any minimum quantities since we are not a supplier. Suppliers have minimum quantities. Every supplier is different. Therefore, every supplier has different conditions in terms of minimums. Small orders will be directed to small manufacturers, medium-sized orders will be directed to medium-sized manufacturers, and bigger orders will be directed to bigger established factories. It’s all about matching the right project with the right manufacturer.
We have 4 levels of MOQ conditions:
-
Style qty: minimum requirement of 5 styles for our development & production services.
-
Production order minimums: standard minimum requirement of 100 pieces per style.
-
MCQ (minimum colour qty): limit of 2 colour options per style, at no less than 50 pieces for each colour.
-
Size breakdown ratio: maximum of 5 sizes per style (*additional sizes will attract fees).
Can we visit the factory that you find for us?
Of course you can. We are totally transparent and would love for you to visit your chosen factory if you have the time!
This really helps to solidify a strong relationship with the manufacturers, our teams regularly visit factories on behalf of our clients – it creates a great bond and helps make things happen quicker.
You have full power to contact the suppliers, and again we even give you their details for this! This is the entire basis of our service – to help you form a strong relationship with the suppliers.
Do you deal with Quality Control?
Yes, all fabric is inspected before and after printing, any flaws are marked and if number of flaws exceed our standard grade it is returned/re printed. Our markers are computer nested and a coding system ensures the correct styles are cut.
Each machinist sees an entire garment through from start to finish therefore any marks or flaws are quickly picked up. Our QC team will measure, check for flaws, stains and test pull stress areas of the garment.
The production manager & assistant manager will conduct random spot check through out the order cycle.
We’ll send you photos & videos of everything you want to see, and can perform regular QC inspections to assess your products each time you make an order.
What is a tech pack? you make it for me?
A tech pack is the blueprint of your design, which includes you CAD drawings, garment details (e.g. stitching, trims, etc.), size grading specifications and measurements. A good quality should contain all the information required for your manufacturer to develop your patterns and stitch your samples. Tech packs are updated through the sample process, any changes in design should be reflected in the tech pack.
We will provide you with the necessary tech packs to make your designs as trendy and as wearable as possible. We cover all bases so that we can align your mind with our manufacturer, and get your designs to be of the highest quality possible.
You can either send us your physical samples (with any alteration instructions) or you can take pictures of your samples and edit these images to include your seam measurements, then include them in your tech packs. Once you send your physical samples to us, we will use them to obtain production costs for you. This will take longer than if we have your tech packs but it does make things much easier if you are looking to replicate your samples.
If you just have sketches you’ll need to turn your sketches into clearly drawn supporting images for your tech packs, with corresponding seam measurement lines. But you can still use them.
Can i ensure my designs aren’t stolen or copied?
We only share your tech packs with the ethical manufacturers in our network whom we trust implicitly. When you’re not in production, your intellectual property is stored off-site for protection against design exposure.
What are your production lead-times?
On average, we estimate anywhere between 4-6+ months lead-time- from sketch to delivery to your door. This timeline can vary, largely depending on which stage of the process you begin with us, your sourcing strategy, the complexity of your product, and the manufacturer’s capacity. Raw material lead-times can also be a key factor in determining the overall production timelines.
Manufacturers are environmentally friendly?
We pledge to work with ethical and sustainable manufacturers and suppliers that put the planet first. Our factories have the following certifications:
SA8000 Standard certification in 2016
Sedex registered
Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS)
OCS Blended – Organic Content Standard
OCS 100 – Organic Content Standard
Global Recycle Standard
Better Cotton Initiative participant
What types of fabrics are you able to source?
We’re able to source fabrics from all over the world, so just let us know what exactly you require.
What do I need to bring to my intro chat?
The more detail, the better!
Please come prepared with the following information for each design, so we can best help you out:
1- Garment construction – reference image or sketches
2- Desired fabrications – images or physical examples you have on hand
3- Colour reference images
The purpose of this chat is to assess whether we can meet all you design needs and objectives.
