Elevated Mens Vest in Tulle with Open Back
Elevated Mens Vest in Tulle with Open Back
A Corporate Procurement Team approached us to develop a elevated mens vest around a single idea: open back, executed in tulle. The capsule was destined for Egypt 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
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Tulle was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The mens vest was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Open Back was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

Result
- 900 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Corporate Procurement Team launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Approve the hand feel on the actual bulk fabric — proto cloth always behaves differently.
