Avant-Garde Elegant Long Sleeve Blouses in Metallic Thread with Hand-Finished Hem
Avant-Garde Elegant Long Sleeve Blouses in Metallic Thread with Hand-Finished Hem
A Logistics Provider approached us to develop a avant-garde elegant long sleeve blouses around a single idea: hand-finished hem, executed in metallic thread. The capsule was destined for the United Kingdom and needed avant-garde 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Metallic Thread was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The elegant long sleeve blouses was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Hand-Finished 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
- 240 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Logistics Provider 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.
