Minimalist Inside Boys Swim Trunk in Velvet with Fringe Trim
A Maternity Wear Brand approached us to develop a minimalist inside boys swim trunk around a single idea: fringe trim, executed in velvet. The capsule was destined for the Philippines and needed minimalist 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
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Delivery missed the collection launch window

How it was built

- Velvet was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The inside boys swim trunk was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Fringe Trim 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 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Maternity Wear Brand 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.
