Modern Rhinestone Dress in Tencel with Cut-Out Detail
A Mining Company approached us to develop a modern rhinestone dress around a single idea: cut-out detail, executed in tencel. The capsule was destined for Ukraine and needed modern 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Tencel was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The rhinestone dress was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Cut-Out Detail 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
- 2,400 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Mining Company 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.
