Capsule Elegant Long Sleeve Blouses in Metallic Thread with Chunky Chain Strap
Capsule Elegant Long Sleeve Blouses in Metallic Thread with Chunky Chain Strap
A Hospital Group approached us to develop a capsule elegant long sleeve blouses around a single idea: chunky chain strap, executed in metallic thread. The capsule was destined for New Zealand and needed capsule 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
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- The sample did not match the runway reference
