ANNE TOURAINE, Inc. is a Florida-based supplier specializing in custom scarves, ties, bow ties and pocket squares for businesses, organizations and institutions across the United States. Below you’ll find answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about our custom design and production services.
We specialize in custom scarves, ties, bow ties and pocket squares designed for businesses, organizations and institutions. Our products can be created individually or as coordinated collections using the same colors, logos or design elements. We offer a wide selection of fabrics, sizes and finishing options to suit different projects and budgets.
Ordering your custom scarves, ties, bow ties and pocket squares from the same supplier simplifies the entire project. You have a single point of contact for design and production, greater consistency across colors and materials, coordinated delivery, and potentially lower overall shipping and production costs. It is also much easier to create matching accessories for a unified corporate or organizational identity.
Absolutely. A design can be adapted across scarves, ties, bow ties and pocket squares while maintaining a consistent visual identity. Because the proportions of these products are different, the artwork may need to be adjusted rather than simply reproduced at the same scale. Our complimentary design service can adapt your logo, colors and other design elements to each accessory.
The more information you provide, the better we can understand your project. Your logo, brand colors, preferred style, intended use, event information and any visual references are all helpful. You can also tell us whether you want your logo to be prominent or subtle. Based on your requirements, our designers can develop a custom concept specifically for your project.
In most cases, our custom design service is complimentary. This applies to designs developed from your logo, brand colors, graphic elements, existing artwork or other visual references you provide.
For more complex, highly detailed or fully original artwork requiring extensive design work, a design fee may apply. If so, we will always advise you of the fee upfront, before any design work begins, and proceed only with your approval.
We can accommodate virtually any number of colors and a wide range of design styles, from simple logos and repeating patterns to detailed, multicolor artwork.
If you provide your own artwork, our designers will evaluate it and recommend the most appropriate approach for the selected product and fabric. If any technical adjustments are necessary for production, we will discuss them with you before proceeding.
We offer a wide selection of fabrics to accommodate different styles, uses and budgets, including silk, silk-cotton blends, polyester, modal and other options. The fabrics available depend on the product and project requirements. We will be happy to recommend the most appropriate options based on the look, feel, intended use and budget of your project.
Yes. Complimentary fabric swatches are available to prospective clients after we have discussed their project, provided a quotation, and they have confirmed their interest in working with us. We will select the most relevant swatches based on the product, project requirements and fabric options being considered.
A virtual sample is a digital representation of your custom scarf, tie, bow tie or pocket square showing how the proposed design will look before production. It allows you to review the colors, logo placement, proportions and overall design and request adjustments if necessary. Production begins only after the design has been approved.
Yes. A physical pre-production sample can be produced upon request. Please allow approximately 3 to 4 weeks for the sample to be produced and delivered. Additional costs apply, and we will provide the applicable fee in advance.
Alternatively, most of our clients choose to receive pre-production photos of their actual products before full production begins. These photos provide a clear and realistic preview of the finished product and allow you to review its overall appearance. There is no additional charge for this service.
Yes. Custom gift packaging is available for scarves, ties, bow ties and pocket squares. Depending on the product, quantity and project requirements, we can offer different packaging options and may also personalize the packaging with your company logo or branding. Contact us for available options and pricing.
Our standard minimum order quantity is 50 pieces per design for custom scarves, ties and bow ties, and 100 pieces per design for custom pocket squares.
For projects involving multiple designs ordered at the same time, we can often offer greater flexibility. For example, an order of five different scarf designs may be produced in quantities of 25 pieces per design, subject to the overall project specifications and production requirements.
If your project includes several designs or product variations, please contact us to discuss the most suitable production options.
Our standard production lead time is approximately 5 to 6 weeks, starting once the deposit has been received and all designs have been approved by the client.
Production times may vary depending on the specifics of the project, quantity and production requirements. In certain circumstances, expedited production and delivery may be available for time-sensitive projects. Please let us know about any specific deadline when requesting your quotation so we can determine whether an expedited schedule can be accommodated.
Simply complete our Request your Quotation form and tell us about your project. Please include the products you are interested in, approximate quantities, preferred fabrics if known, desired delivery date, and any available artwork or logo files.
You can also add comments or additional information to help us better understand your specific requirements. We will review your request and provide a detailed quotation within a few business hours.
ANNE TOURAINE, Inc. is based in Sarasota, Florida, and primarily serves businesses, organizations and institutions throughout the United States.
We can also work with international clients when the scope and size of the project make international production and shipping practical. If you are located outside the United States, please contact us with the details of your project, and we will be happy to determine whether we can accommodate your requirements.
Proper care will help preserve the appearance and longevity of your custom accessories. All our products include a care label with specific cleaning and care instructions, and we recommend following these instructions for the particular fabric and product.
As a general rule, ties should always be untied after use and stored hanging or gently rolled. Scarves should be stored flat, folded or loosely rolled in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight.
For silk scarves and ties, professional dry cleaning is generally recommended. If your scarf has hand-rolled edges, let your dry cleaner know so they can take appropriate care when cleaning and pressing it.
Scarves can be folded flat or gently rolled, while ties are best loosely rolled to help prevent creasing. When you arrive at your destination, unpack them promptly and allow them to hang naturally. Light wrinkles will often relax on their own.
Now that you know more about our custom design process, fabrics, samples, production and services, the next step is simple: tell us about your project.
