Modern Crochet Cardigan Sweater For Women in Sequined Knit with Cut-Out Detail

Modern Crochet Cardigan Sweater For Women in Sequined Knit with Cut-Out Detail

A Cruise Line approached us to develop a modern crochet cardigan sweater for women around a single idea: cut-out detail, executed in sequined knit. The capsule was destined for the United Arab Emirates and needed modern finishing that reads designer on the rail while staying repeatable in bulk. This case study records the brief, the specification and the delivery.

The challenge

• Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
• Decoration durability failed after two washes
• Delivery missed the collection launch window

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Sequined Knit was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The crochet cardigan sweater for women was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Cut-Out Detail was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
5. Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

Result

• 2,400 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
• Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Cruise Line launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.

What we would repeat

Approve the hand feel on the actual bulk fabric — proto cloth always behaves differently.
