Minimalist Lace Underpants in Crochet with Draped Neckline
A Beauty Salon Chain approached us to develop a minimalist lace underpants around a single idea: draped neckline, executed in crochet. The capsule was destined for Italy 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs

- The lace underpants was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Draped Neckline was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

What we would repeat
Approve the hand feel on the actual bulk fabric — proto cloth always behaves differently.
