Contemporary Designer Mother Of The Bride Dresses in Ribbed Jersey with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons

Contemporary Designer Mother Of The Bride Dresses in Ribbed Jersey with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons

A Gym Chain approached us to develop a contemporary designer mother of the bride dresses around a single idea: mother-of-pearl buttons, executed in ribbed jersey. The capsule was destined for South Korea and needed contemporary 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

• Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
• The sample did not match the runway reference
• Delivery missed the collection launch window

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Ribbed Jersey was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The designer mother of the bride dresses was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Mother-of-Pearl Buttons was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
5. Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

Result

• 2,400 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
• Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Gym Chain 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.
