Bohemian Volleyball Compression Pants in Merino Wool with Sculptural Draping

Bohemian Volleyball Compression Pants in Merino Wool with Sculptural Draping

An Airline Catering Team approached us to develop a bohemian volleyball compression pants around a single idea: sculptural draping, executed in merino wool. The capsule was destined for Saudi Arabia and needed bohemian 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
• Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
• The sample did not match the runway reference

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Merino Wool was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The volleyball compression pants was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Sculptural Draping 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

• 600 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
• Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
• The an Airline Catering Team launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.

What we would repeat

Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
