Effortless Halloween Witch Hat in boucle with Asymmetric Closure
An Independent Boutique Brand approached us to develop a effortless halloween witch hat around a single idea: asymmetric closure, executed in boucle. The capsule was destined for Australia and needed effortless 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Delivery missed the collection launch window

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