Sculptural Men'S Camouflage Wetsuit in Metallic Thread with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons

Sculptural Men'S Camouflage Wetsuit in Metallic Thread with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons

A Private Clinic approached us to develop a sculptural men's camouflage wetsuit around a single idea: mother-of-pearl buttons, executed in metallic thread. The capsule was destined for France and needed sculptural 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

• Delivery missed the collection launch window
• The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
• Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

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 men's camouflage wetsuit was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Mother-of-Pearl Buttons 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

• 2,400 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
• Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
• The a Private Clinic launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.

What we would repeat

Lock the colour standard before grading; every downstream approval depends on it.
