Parisian Swimwear Men Board Short in Velvet with Delicate Pleating
A Wholesale Distributor approached us to develop a parisian swimwear men board short around a single idea: delicate pleating, executed in velvet. The capsule was destined for Norway and needed parisian 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
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- 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.
- Velvet was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The swimwear men board short was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Delicate Pleating 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
- 120 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Wholesale Distributor 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.
