This calculator is designed for bespoke lingerie designers and their clients. The designer inputs the costs for materials (fabric, lace, hardware), their hourly labor rate, and the estimated time to create the garment. The calculator then generates a detailed cost breakdown for the client, providing a transparent and professional price estimate for the custom piece.

Transparency is key in building trust with clients for bespoke services. This calculator demystifies the cost of custom-made lingerie, breaking it down into tangible components: materials and labor. For designers, it's a professional tool for providing accurate quotes. For clients, it offers a clear understanding of the craftsmanship and value they are investing in, justifying the premium for a garment made just for them.

The result is a comprehensive price breakdown of the commissioned lingerie piece. It will clearly itemize the cost of all materials and the total for skilled labor. This allows both the designer and client to be on the same page regarding the final price. The breakdown helps clients appreciate the skill and resources required for a bespoke creation and helps designers ensure they are charging fairly for their work.

• Designers: Use this tool to create professional, transparent quotes for your clients.
• Clients: Use the cost breakdown to understand the value and craftsmanship you are investing in.
• Before commissioning a piece, have a clear idea of your budget and design preferences to share with the designer.
• Always provide accurate measurements for the best possible fit.
• Don't be afraid to ask questions! A good designer will be happy to walk you through their process and material choices.
