Minimalist Rhinestone Dress in boucle with Hand-Finished Hem
An Event Management Company approached us to develop a minimalist rhinestone dress around a single idea: hand-finished hem, executed in boucle. The capsule was destined for Switzerland and needed minimalist 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
What we specified
| Product | Minimalist Rhinestone Dress |
|---|---|
| Client type | An Event Management Company |
| Market | Switzerland |
| Order volume | 400 pieces across 5 colourways |
| Base material | boucle |
| Signature detail | Hand-Finished Hem |
| Size range | Custom grading |
| Sampling rounds | 2 |
| Delivery window | 8 weeks from PO to ex-factory |
| Compliance | OEKO-TEX Standard 100 |
How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- boucle 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.
- Hand-Finished Hem 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
- 400 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The an Event Management Company launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Lock the colour standard before grading; every downstream approval depends on it.
