Statement Cropped Denim Dungarees in Tulle with Hand-Finished Hem

Statement Cropped Denim Dungarees in Tulle with Hand-Finished Hem

A Boutique Fitness Studio approached us to develop a statement cropped denim dungarees around a single idea: hand-finished hem, executed in tulle. The capsule was destined for Vietnam and needed statement 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

• Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
• Delivery missed the collection launch window
• The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Tulle was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The cropped denim dungarees was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Hand-Finished Hem 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

• 240 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
• Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
• The a Boutique Fitness Studio launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.

What we would repeat

Lock the colour standard before grading; every downstream approval depends on it.
