Custom Ethnic Stole — Modal with Placement Printing
We make ethnic stole built around native southwestern geometry, produced in Modal with placement printing. On ethnic stole the decision that matters most is hand feel against the neck, which decides whether it gets worn, so that is fixed in the tech pack before cloth is bought — not discovered on the first bulk lot. Programmes start at 200 pieces per style per colour and ship to Jebel Ali.
The failures here are predictable: shade variation within one carton, and trim and fringe that loosens after the first wash. We lock the specification before bulk — cloth, trim, dye lot, hem finish and tolerance — and prepare GSO conformity with Arabic labelling so shipments clear instead of sitting at port while the spring tourist season passes.

Care, packing and delivery
Each piece is folded, tissue-wrapped and packed to the ratio you specify, with barcodes and hangtags applied where the retail channel needs them. Care labelling follows the destination's rules. We ship to Jebel Ali with the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and hold the approved specification on file so reorders reproduce the same cloth, the same shade and the same hand feel against the neck, which decides whether it gets worn.
FAQ
What is the minimum order?
Programmes start at 200 pieces per style per colour. Mixed size runs are fine within one style.
Can you do small runs across many designs?
Yes — many gift shop and boutique programmes run small quantities across a wide design set.
Which compliance documents do you provide?
We prepare OEKO-TEX Standard 100 for dyes and trims and the supporting test reports for the destination market.
Can you match a fabric or a physical sample?
Yes. Send the reference and we match cloth weight, hand feel and shade, then confirm on a strike-off before bulk.
