Vintage-Inspired Red Carpet Dresses in Tulle with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons
A Logistics Provider approached us to develop a vintage-inspired red carpet dresses around a single idea: mother-of-pearl buttons, executed in tulle. The capsule was destined for Spain and needed vintage-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
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

How it was built

- Tulle was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The red carpet dresses was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Mother-of-Pearl Buttons was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.
Result
- 1,500 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Logistics Provider launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
