Case Study: Custom Elegant Evening Dresses for a Logistics Provider in Turkey
Elegant Evening Dresses for a Logistics Provider in Turkey
A Logistics Provider approached us with a elegant evening dresses requirement for Turkey. The brief was specific: a defined look, a hard launch date and a unit cost that had to survive shipping and duty. This case study records what was specified, what went wrong in sampling and how the bulk order was delivered.
The challenge
- Suppliers who disappear once the deposit is paid
- Unclear responsibility when a defect shows up after washing
- Minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb

What we specified
| Product | Elegant Evening Dresses |
|---|---|
| Client type | A Logistics Provider |
| Market | Turkey |
| Order volume | 5,000 pieces across 2 colourways |
| Base fabric | Anti-Static Fabric |
| Decoration | Garment Dyeing |
| Size range | 2-12Y |
| Sampling rounds | 3 |
| Delivery window | 10 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the tech pack around Anti-Static Fabric and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
- Decoration was moved to Garment Dyeing after strike-off tests showed better wash durability.
- A pre-production sample was approved and retained as the golden reference.
- Production ran with in-line inspection and a mid-run photo report.
- Cartons were packed to the client's own barcode and size ratio specification.

Result
- 5,000 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the original quotation.
- Return rate linked to fit or workmanship stayed under 0.5%.
- The specification is now on file, so reorders reproduce the approved sample.
What we would repeat
Lock the colour standard before grading. Once a shade moves, every downstream approval has to be redone and the calendar slips.
