Chic Plus Size Beach Dresses in Silk with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons
Chic Plus Size Beach Dresses in Silk with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons
A Coffee Roaster Chain approached us to develop a chic plus size beach dresses around a single idea: mother-of-pearl buttons, executed in silk. The capsule was destined for Indonesia and needed chic 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
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Delivery missed the collection launch window

How it was built

What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
