Established in 2019, our journey began with a simple yet powerful goal — to find smart, innovative ways to make apparel manufacturing more efficient, flexible, and accessible to our partners around the world.
We recognised the significant challenges many emerging brands face when dealing with traditional manufacturing: prohibitively high minimum order quantities, rigid production systems, and lack of transparency. These barriers prevent creative entrepreneurs and small-to-medium brands from bringing their designs to life.
We run production at scale — without ever letting go of quality over quantity.
Over the years, we’ve invested heavily in building a skilled, dedicated team and collaborated with brands across global markets to help them transform ideas into tangible products — developing new fabric blends, implementing sustainable practices, providing end-to-end manufacturing support.
Today we’re a father-daughter partnership with decades of garment industry experience — running large bulk and wholesale orders, while still saying yes to a creator’s first 150 pieces.

What we believe
Three principles, since day one.
Every decision we make — from the yarn we source to the brands we say yes to — runs through these.
02 · Genuine transparency
You see every step.
From yarn to dev to production to QC to ship — you know exactly where your order stands. No surprises. No guessing.
03 · Sustainable by default
Organic cotton in every fabric, from a GOTS-certified facility.
Organic cotton, hemp blends, recycled performance fabrics, bamboo viscose — the right sustainable choice for every product class.
WHY THIS MATTERS
Building something different.
The fashion industry has a dark history of exploitation.

About Collective Studio: common questions
When was Collective Studio founded, and who runs it?
Collective Studio was established in 2019 by Jashim Uddin, who runs it with his daughter, co-founder Homaira Jashim. It is a family business: Jashim brings the supply-chain side, Homaira leads the work with brands from first enquiry to shipping. Collective Studio Ltd is a separate company from its parent, Belle Vouz Ltd, with its own company registration, VAT number, export licence and GOTS certificate. The founders page tells both stories in full.
Where is the factory, and is there an office in Europe?
The factory is at Plot-A-132, Road No. 02, BSCIC Industrial Area, Panchabati, Narayanganj 1420, Bangladesh, the knitwear district just south of Dhaka. The branch office is at Soetendaal 61, 1081 BN Amsterdam, in the Netherlands, which picks up questions later in the European day. Both are on the contact page.
Does Collective Studio do everything in-house?
Cutting, sewing, printing, embroidery, quality checks and packing happen on our own floor in Narayanganj. Spinning, knitting and dyeing do not: those are done by partner mills in Bangladesh that we specify to and inspect. We make knitwear only, and say so, rather than taking woven or tailored work we would have to pass to someone else. You can watch both sides, our floor and the partner mills, on our factory videos page.
Which certifications and memberships does the factory hold?
The factory holds GOTS certificate RSC 9687, and we send the scope certificate itself on request, naming the certified facility and the products it covers. Collective Studio is a member of the BKMEA, the knitwear manufacturers' association of Bangladesh, and of the Narayanganj Chamber of Commerce. The certifications page lists the company registration, VAT and export numbers as well.
Can I see the factory before I place an order?
Yes. You can visit Narayanganj by arrangement, or ask for a live video call from the floor while a shift is running, Sunday to Thursday in Bangladesh working hours. The factory profile puts the facts a buyer needs on one page, and the factory videos show the floor and the mills before you call.
