Luxe Formal Dress Gloves in Tulle with Contrast Topstitching
A Hotel Group approached us to develop a luxe formal dress gloves around a single idea: contrast topstitching, executed in tulle. The capsule was destined for the Netherlands and needed luxe 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
- The sample did not match the runway reference

What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
