Bohemian Rhinestone Bodysuit in Vegan Leather with Waist Tie Belt
A University Athletic Department approached us to develop a bohemian rhinestone bodysuit around a single idea: waist tie belt, executed in vegan leather. The capsule was destined for France and needed bohemian 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
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

- The rhinestone bodysuit was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Waist Tie Belt was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

- The a University Athletic Department launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
