A Pet Grooming Franchise approached us to develop a effortless cycling glasses around a single idea: delicate pleating, executed in mohair. The capsule was destined for Spain and needed effortless finishing that reads designer on the rail while staying repeatable in bulk. This case study records the brief, the specification and the delivery.
