Boutique Long Sleeve Prom Dresses in Silk with Tonal Embroidery
Boutique Long Sleeve Prom Dresses in Silk with Tonal Embroidery
A Beauty Salon Chain approached us to develop a boutique long sleeve prom dresses around a single idea: tonal embroidery, executed in silk. The capsule was destined for Malaysia and needed boutique 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
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

- The long sleeve prom dresses was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Tonal Embroidery was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Beauty Salon Chain 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.
