Designer Protective Clothing Factory Dress With Ppe in Tencel with Contrast Topstitching
Designer Protective Clothing Factory Dress With Ppe in Tencel with Contrast Topstitching
A Marathon Organizer approached us to develop a designer protective clothing factory dress with ppe around a single idea: contrast topstitching, executed in tencel. The capsule was destined for Israel and needed designer 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
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Tencel was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The protective clothing factory dress with ppe was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Contrast Topstitching 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
- 1,500 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Marathon Organizer 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.
