Underwear sets, your specification
Made to your tech pack, fabric and colours by a factory matched to the order.
Private label
Your main label, care label, hangtag and polybag. Nominated trims accepted.
An underwear set sells as one product but is made from two or more garments, often in different fabrics, cut and dyed apart and brought together at packing. Buyers are lingerie brands selling bra and brief sets, gift ranges, and men's basics brands selling packs of three, five or seven. An underwear set manufacturer in Bangladesh has to match shade across fabrics and dye lots, and pair sizes so that every pack is sellable.
Garments Hub BD asks both factories to quote the set as a unit: each garment, the shade matching between them, the packaging and the assembly labour, on one sheet. Final inspection can take the set as its sample unit, so a missing brief or a wrong size pair fails the whole set. Photographs of the finished sets come to you before the goods move.
Kinds of underwear set
Bra and panty sets
A bra or bralette with a brief, thong or hipster in the same lace or fabric. Sold on one hanger or in a box, with the brief size fixed against the bra size.
Men's multipacks
Three, five or seven trunks or briefs in one pack, one style in assorted colours or a single colour. The pack format is a cost line of its own.
Mix and match separates
Bras and briefs sold separately in coordinated colours, so the customer picks each size. No size pairing, but shade must still match across separate deliveries.
Gift and boxed sets
Sets packed in a rigid or folding box with tissue and an insert card. Box making and printed artwork carry their own minimums and lead time.
How to brief an underwear set manufacturer in Bangladesh
- Shade standard
- One physical shade standard for the whole set and the light sources it is judged under, such as D65 daylight and your store lighting. Lace and jersey take dye differently, so name a tolerance.
- Size pairing
- Fixed pairs, such as bra 34B with brief M, or a pairing chart by band and cup. Every size pair is a separate product with its own barcode.
- Pack ratio
- For multipacks, the colours per pack and the size ratio per carton. For sets, the ratio of size pairs, which should follow your sales history, not an even spread.
- Packaging
- Hanger with a size cube, folding box, rigid box, or polybag with a printed insert, plus the artwork for each. Packaging is quoted with the set, not added later.
- Barcodes and labels
- A barcode per set or pack, and a care and content label in each garment, since pieces may be sold or returned apart.
- Component lots
- Cut the lace or jersey for one colour from one lot, and record the lot against each batch of sets.
Tests and rules for underwear sets
- ISO 105-C06
- Washing fastness with staining on every fabric in the set. A dark lace bra will be washed with its light brief, so test that exact pairing.
- ISO 2859-1
- The AQL sampling tables. For sets, agree that the sample unit is the set or pack, so a defect in one piece rejects the unit.
- FTC Care Labeling Rule (16 CFR 423)
- A US set sold as one unit may carry a single permanent label only when every piece needs the same care. A lace bra and a jersey brief rarely do, so label each garment.
What moves the price of an underwear set
- Shade matching between lace and jersey, which can need extra lab dips and re-dyes.
- Packaging format: a rigid box costs far more than a hanger or polybag.
- Assembly labour to pair, hang or box each set and check its sizes.
- Size pairing, which leaves odd pieces over when one size runs short.
- Number of colours per pack, each a separate dye lot to match.
Lead time for underwear sets
Each garment in a set follows the bench timing, with samples usually in 7 to 14 days and bulk typically 30 to 60 days after PP approval, but a set ships only when its slowest part is ready. Bought in lace, a re-dye to match shade or a printed gift box made outside the factory can each add days. The quote names the critical part and the confirmed date.
What we check on underwear sets before shipment
- Shade under the agreed lightEvery piece of a set compared under the agreed light source against the single shade standard.
- Size pairsSets opened at random to confirm the bra and brief sizes match the pairing chart and the barcode.
- Pack count and assortmentMultipacks counted for pieces and colours, with no repeated colour where the pack should be assorted.
- Packaging artworkHanger, size cube, box print and insert card match the approved artwork, and boxes close without crushing lace.
Questions buyers ask about underwear sets
Why does the lace bra not match the jersey brief exactly?
Lace is usually nylon dyed with acid dyes and jersey is often cotton dyed with reactive dyes, so they take colour differently and can match in daylight but not under store lighting. Set one standard, name the light sources and agree a tolerance before bulk dyeing.
Should sets be sold in fixed size pairs?
Fixed pairs are simpler to pack and display, but customers whose sizes do not pair go elsewhere. Separates sold side by side avoid that, at the cost of more stock to manage. Many brands fix pairs for gift sets and sell core sets as separates.
How is a multipack inspected?
As a pack. The inspector opens a sample of packs drawn under the AQL plan and checks every piece inside: style, colour, size, labels and count. One wrong colour inside a pack makes the whole pack defective.
Does set packaging change the carton?
Yes. Boxes and hangers take more space than flat polybags, so cartons hold fewer sets and freight per set rises. Send the packaging spec with the enquiry so the carton size and the count per carton are quoted from the start.
