Boutique Elegant Long Sleeve Blouses in Genuine Leather with Asymmetric Closure
Boutique Elegant Long Sleeve Blouses in Genuine Leather with Asymmetric Closure
A Cruise Line approached us to develop a boutique elegant long sleeve blouses around a single idea: asymmetric closure, executed in genuine leather. The capsule was destined for Russia and needed boutique 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
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
