To deliver on these requirements, an extensive consultation program was undertaken to understand the needs of the end-users. When the partnership started there were just 18 female range compared to 60 male ranges. Now there are 52 female ranges, with unisex options filling the small gap that remains.
Blackwoods also hosted a specific maternity wear workshop with 30 participants, who were all pregnant at the time. This workshop resulted in the design of a custom maternity wear range that is fit-for-purpose and that expectant mothers would actually want to wear.
The Blackwoods workwear team also has an in-house design unit that supports its exclusive brand Workhorse.
