Cardboard Apparel Box Packaging Design

I’m preparing to ship a new line of apparel and need a custom box that feels premium the moment it’s in a customer’s hands. The format is a classic two-piece cardboard box; sturdy enough for mailing, yet elegant enough to double as a keepsake on a wardrobe shelf.

Here’s what I’d like from you:

• A print-ready dieline sized to my garment dimensions, with clear bleed, fold and glue areas.
• CMYK artwork that conveys a minimal, fashion-forward look while leaving room for the shipping label.
• A 3D mock-up (PNG or PDF) so I can visualise how the box will appear on store shelves and in lifestyle photos.
• Final source files in AI or PSD along with outlined fonts and linked images.

Please keep the design compatible with standard cardboard printing techniques—no spot UV or exotic foils for this run. Sustainability is important, so any suggestions on eco-friendly coatings or inks are welcome. Once I approve the mock-up, I’ll need the production files packaged and ready for the printer.

If you’ve created apparel packaging before, feel free to share a snippet; I’m eager to move quickly and get these boxes on the production line.
