Designer Formal Evening Dresses in Genuine Leather with Waist Tie Belt
A Private Clinic approached us to develop a designer formal evening dresses around a single idea: waist tie belt, executed in genuine leather. The capsule was destined for Sweden and needed designer finishing that reads designer on the rail while staying repeatable in bulk. This case study records the brief, the specification and the delivery.

- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
