Romantic Newborn Baby Shoes in Crochet with Chunky Chain Strap
Romantic Newborn Baby Shoes in Crochet with Chunky Chain Strap
A Fast-Growing Startup Label approached us to develop a romantic newborn baby shoes around a single idea: chunky chain strap, executed in crochet. The capsule was destined for the United Arab Emirates 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.

- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
