Luxe Swimwear Men Board Short in Merino Wool with Crystal Embellishment
Luxe Swimwear Men Board Short in Merino Wool with Crystal Embellishment
A Corporate Procurement Team approached us to develop a luxe swimwear men board short around a single idea: crystal embellishment, executed in merino wool. The capsule was destined for Finland and needed luxe 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 previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Merino Wool 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.
- 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
- 1,500 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Corporate Procurement Team 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.
