Minimalist Elegant Evening Dresses in Ribbed Jersey with Sculptural Draping
A Manufacturing Plant approached us to develop a minimalist elegant evening dresses around a single idea: sculptural draping, executed in ribbed jersey. The capsule was destined for Norway 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 sample did not match the runway reference
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
