Vintage-Inspired Elegant Wedding Dresses in Washed Linen with Padded Shoulder
Vintage-Inspired Elegant Wedding Dresses in Washed Linen with Padded Shoulder
An Airline Catering Team approached us to develop a vintage-inspired elegant wedding dresses around a single idea: padded shoulder, executed in washed linen. The capsule was destined for Chile and needed vintage-inspired 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs

What we would repeat
