Romantic Newborn Baby Shoes in Merino Wool with Fringe Trim
Romantic Newborn Baby Shoes in Merino Wool with Fringe Trim
An Event Management Company approached us to develop a romantic newborn baby shoes around a single idea: fringe trim, executed in merino wool. The capsule was destined for Japan and needed romantic 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
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

What we would repeat
