Boutique Rhinestone Bodysuit in Crochet with Smocked Panel
Boutique Rhinestone Bodysuit in Crochet with Smocked Panel
A Gym Chain approached us to develop a boutique rhinestone bodysuit around a single idea: smocked panel, executed in crochet. The capsule was destined for Indonesia 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Crochet was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The rhinestone bodysuit was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Smocked Panel 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
- 600 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Gym Chain 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.
