Modern Ball Gown Wedding Dresses in Washed Linen with Smocked Panel
A Hotel Group approached us to develop a modern ball gown wedding dresses around a single idea: smocked panel, executed in washed linen. The capsule was destined for France and needed modern 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
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- The sample did not match the runway reference
