Elevated Upf Protection Modest Swimwear in Sequined Knit with Raw-Edge Detailing

Elevated Upf Protection Modest Swimwear in Sequined Knit with Raw-Edge Detailing

A Railway Operator approached us to develop a elevated upf protection modest swimwear around a single idea: raw-edge detailing, executed in sequined knit. The capsule was destined for Ukraine and needed elevated 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
• Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
• Delivery missed the collection launch window

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Sequined Knit was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The upf protection modest swimwear was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Raw-Edge Detailing was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
5. 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 Railway Operator 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.
