Casual Dress For Wedding for a Promotional Products Company in Australia
A Promotional Products Company approached us with a casual dress for wedding requirement for Australia. 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
- Packaging that arrives crushed and unsellable
- Inconsistent sizing between production runs
- Long lead times that miss the selling season
What we specified
| Product | Casual Dress For Wedding |
|---|---|
| Client type | A Promotional Products Company |
| Market | Australia |
| Order volume | 800 pieces across 3 colourways |
| Base fabric | Nylon |
| Decoration | Chenille Embroidery |
| Size range | 2-12Y |
| Sampling rounds | 3 |
| Delivery window | 5 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
How it was resolved
- We rebuilt the tech pack around Nylon and locked shrinkage allowance before grading.
- Decoration was moved to Chenille Embroidery 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
- 800 pieces delivered inside the 5-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the original quotation.
- Return rate linked to fit or workmanship stayed under 1.5%.
- 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.
