Statement Long Men Board Short in Metallic Thread with Raw-Edge Detailing

Statement Long Men Board Short in Metallic Thread with Raw-Edge Detailing

A Uniform Supplier approached us to develop a statement long men board short around a single idea: raw-edge detailing, executed in metallic thread. The capsule was destined for the United Arab Emirates and needed statement 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
• Delivery missed the collection launch window

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Metallic Thread was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The long men board short was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Raw-Edge Detailing was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
5. Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

Result

• 400 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
• Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Uniform Supplier 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.
