Tailored Custom Family Sweatshirts in Sequined Knit with High-Low Hem
Tailored Custom Family Sweatshirts in Sequined Knit with High-Low Hem
A Restaurant Chain approached us to develop a tailored custom family sweatshirts around a single idea: high-low hem, executed in sequined knit. The capsule was destined for the United Kingdom and needed tailored 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
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Sequined Knit was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The custom family sweatshirts 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
- 1,500 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Restaurant Chain 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.
