Capsule Beaded Flower Motifs in Washed Linen with Contrast Topstitching
A Cruise Line approached us to develop a capsule beaded flower motifs around a single idea: contrast topstitching, executed in washed linen. The capsule was destined for Brazil and needed capsule 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
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Washed Linen was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The beaded flower motifs was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Contrast Topstitching was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.
Result
- 400 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Cruise Line launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Lock the colour standard before grading; every downstream approval depends on it.
