Boutique Muslin Swaddle Blanket in Tulle with Crystal Embellishment
Boutique Muslin Swaddle Blanket in Tulle with Crystal Embellishment
An Independent Fashion Designer approached us to develop a boutique muslin swaddle blanket around a single idea: crystal embellishment, executed in tulle. The capsule was destined for Canada and needed boutique 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
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- The sample did not match the runway reference

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Tulle was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The muslin swaddle blanket was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Crystal Embellishment 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
- 240 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The an Independent Fashion Designer 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.
