Effortless Low Cut Tank Top in Suede with Open Back
An Independent Fashion Designer approached us to develop a effortless low cut tank top around a single idea: open back, executed in suede. The capsule was destined for Russia 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
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

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