We've sat on both sides of the order.
Our family worked as merchandisers and as manufacturers. We understand what buyers need to hear and what factories need to know.
Fashionique really begins with my father. In 1991 he started out as a garment merchandiser, the person in the middle who makes sure a buyer's order becomes exactly the garment they had in mind. He worked for major companies, including Gooryong of Korea, and over those years he learned where the details get lost, and how much trust it takes to keep both sides confident.
In 2006 he took the leap and opened his own factory, then extended it in 2014. Under a different name, and across different countries, we made clothes for brands we were proud to work with: Juicy Couture, fashion labels in Italy, workwear for Germany, sportswear and outerwear for names like Salewa and Decathlon. Some orders were bulk programmes worth over a million US dollars. Others were small, careful runs. We gave both the same attention.
We kept going through the pandemic, when many couldn't. In the summer of 2024 we handed over our final order, and that November we closed the company. Closing it wasn't easy. But the years didn't disappear. We kept the knowledge, and above all the people: the teams across Bangladesh we know, trust and have worked alongside for years.
Fashionique is how we're coming back. This time, rather than running one factory, I connect buyers with the right manufacturing teams for each project, and our procurement team sources the trims and accessories that finish a garment. It means more choice for you, and the same care we've always put into every order.
If you're planning a collection or an order, I'd be glad to hear about it.
