Minimalist Slip Dress in Tulle with Lace Inset
A Trade Show Exhibitor approached us to develop a minimalist slip dress around a single idea: lace inset, executed in tulle. The capsule was destined for Sweden 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 challenge
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Tulle was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The slip dress was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Lace Inset was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.
Result
- 400 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Trade Show Exhibitor launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
