Romantic Lace Underpants in Organic Denim with Hand-Finished Hem
A Cruise Line approached us to develop a romantic lace underpants around a single idea: hand-finished hem, executed in organic denim. The capsule was destined for Switzerland and needed romantic 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
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs

How it was built

- Organic Denim was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The lace underpants 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
- 600 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Cruise Line launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Approve the hand feel on the actual bulk fabric — proto cloth always behaves differently.
