Romantic Swimwear Men Board Short in boucle with Asymmetric Closure
A Brewery and Taproom approached us to develop a romantic swimwear men board short around a single idea: asymmetric closure, executed in boucle. The capsule was destined for Italy and needed romantic 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
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- Delivery missed the collection launch window

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- boucle 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.
- Asymmetric Closure 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
- 2,400 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Brewery and Taproom launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Approve the hand feel on the actual bulk fabric — proto cloth always behaves differently.
