Designer Swim Shorts Girls Swimsuit in Crochet with Gathered Sleeves
Designer Swim Shorts Girls Swimsuit in Crochet with Gathered Sleeves
A Construction Firm approached us to develop a designer swim shorts girls swimsuit around a single idea: gathered sleeves, executed in crochet. The capsule was destined for Indonesia 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
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs

What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
