Chic Ballet Stirrup Leg Warmers in Organic Denim with Contrast Topstitching
Chic Ballet Stirrup Leg Warmers in Organic Denim with Contrast Topstitching
An Event Management Company approached us to develop a chic ballet stirrup leg warmers around a single idea: contrast topstitching, executed in organic denim. The capsule was destined for Ukraine and needed chic 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Delivery missed the collection launch window

What we would repeat
