Runway-Inspired Pink Prom Dresses in Organic Denim with Raw-Edge Detailing
Runway-Inspired Pink Prom Dresses in Organic Denim with Raw-Edge Detailing
A Surf School approached us to develop a runway-inspired pink prom dresses around a single idea: raw-edge detailing, executed in organic denim. The capsule was destined for Chile and needed runway-inspired 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- 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.
