Parisian High Underwear in Tencel with Smocked Panel
A Fast-Growing Startup Label approached us to develop a parisian high underwear around a single idea: smocked panel, executed in tencel. The capsule was destined for Peru and needed parisian 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
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Tencel was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The high underwear was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Smocked Panel 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
- 120 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Fast-Growing Startup Label launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
