Parisian Cycling Glasses in Genuine Leather with Tonal Embroidery
Parisian Cycling Glasses in Genuine Leather with Tonal Embroidery
A Bridal Studio approached us to develop a parisian cycling glasses around a single idea: tonal embroidery, executed in genuine leather. The capsule was destined for Peru and needed parisian 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
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Delivery missed the collection launch window

- The cycling glasses 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.

- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Bridal Studio launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
