Minimalist Blue Necktie in Cupro with Covered Buttons
A Ski Resort approached us to develop a minimalist blue necktie around a single idea: covered buttons, executed in cupro. The capsule was destined for Brazil and needed minimalist 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
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- 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.
- Cupro was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The blue necktie was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Covered Buttons 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
- 600 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Ski Resort 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.
