Avant-Garde Cat-Eye Sunglasses in Organza with Tonal Embroidery
A Government Agency approached us to develop a avant-garde cat-eye sunglasses around a single idea: tonal embroidery, executed in organza. The capsule was destined for Denmark and needed avant-garde 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
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Organza was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The cat-eye sunglasses was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Tonal Embroidery 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 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Government Agency launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
