Luxe Crochet Cardigan Sweater For Women in Tencel with High-Low Hem
An Independent Boutique Brand approached us to develop a luxe crochet cardigan sweater for women around a single idea: high-low hem, executed in tencel. The capsule was destined for Austria and needed luxe 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
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

How it was built

- Tencel was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The crochet cardigan sweater for women was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- High-Low Hem was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.
Result
- 900 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The an Independent Boutique Brand launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
