Elevated Leather Flower Decorations in Merino Wool with Sculptural Draping
Elevated Leather Flower Decorations in Merino Wool with Sculptural Draping
A Cycling Team approached us to develop a elevated leather flower decorations around a single idea: sculptural draping, executed in merino wool. The capsule was destined for Chile and needed elevated 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
