Minimalist Tapered Mens Sweat Pants in Sequined Knit with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons
Minimalist Tapered Mens Sweat Pants in Sequined Knit with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons
A Golf Club approached us to develop a minimalist tapered mens sweat pants around a single idea: mother-of-pearl buttons, executed in sequined knit. The capsule was destined for Argentina and needed minimalist 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
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Sequined Knit was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The tapered mens sweat pants was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Mother-of-Pearl Buttons 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 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Golf Club 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.
