Avant-Garde Modern Lady Macbeth Costume in Cashmere with Padded Shoulder

Avant-Garde Modern Lady Macbeth Costume in Cashmere with Padded Shoulder

A Military Supply Unit approached us to develop a avant-garde modern lady macbeth costume around a single idea: padded shoulder, executed in cashmere. The capsule was destined for the United Arab Emirates and needed avant-garde 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

• Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
• Delivery missed the collection launch window
• Decoration durability failed after two washes

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Cashmere was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The modern lady macbeth costume was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Padded Shoulder was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
5. Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

Result

• 600 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
• Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
• The a Military Supply Unit 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.
