Statement Underwear For Woman in Tulle with Delicate Pleating
Statement Underwear For Woman in Tulle with Delicate Pleating
A Cruise Line approached us to develop a statement underwear for woman around a single idea: delicate pleating, executed in tulle. The capsule was destined for Vietnam and needed statement 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
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Tulle was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The underwear for woman 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
- 900 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Cruise Line 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.
