Effortless Latex Swimming Cap in Organza with Lace Inset
Effortless Latex Swimming Cap in Organza with Lace Inset
A Streetwear Collective approached us to develop a effortless latex swimming cap around a single idea: lace inset, executed in organza. The capsule was destined for India and needed effortless 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 sample did not match the runway reference
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs

- Lace Inset 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

- The a Streetwear Collective launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
