01

Assets to prepare before production

A usable channel brief identifies front and back, detail views, style-colour mapping, consistent canvas, approved colour reference. Approve colour, edge quality, scale and included components on the product master first; channel derivatives should not become the only files the brand owns.

02

Make style and colour identity unambiguous

Filename and metadata should carry the partner’s style and colour identifiers from source through delivery.

03

Build a consistent fashion rail

Garment position, scale and crop are reviewed across the style family rather than image by image.

04

Protect material and fit

Cleanup preserves fabric texture, silhouette and construction while removing only agreed production distractions.

05

Bulk output, review and delivery

A saved channel profile can generate repeatable variants while SKUs, handles and item identifiers remain linked to the source order. style and colour-code aligned fashion asset sets. Direct publishing stays labelled setup required until the company owner authorises and tests the real seller account.
