Minimalist White Long Sleeve Blouse With Collar in Washed Linen with Hand-Finished Hem
Minimalist White Long Sleeve Blouse With Collar in Washed Linen with Hand-Finished Hem
A Military Supply Unit approached us to develop a minimalist white long sleeve blouse with collar around a single idea: hand-finished hem, executed in washed linen. The capsule was destined for France 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
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Washed Linen was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The white long sleeve blouse with collar was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Hand-Finished Hem 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
- 1,500 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Military Supply Unit 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.
