Tailored Rhinestone Embellished Chains in Organic Denim with Delicate Pleating

A National Retail Chain approached us to develop a tailored rhinestone embellished chains around a single idea: delicate pleating, executed in organic denim. The capsule was destined for Morocco and needed tailored 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
• Delivery missed the collection launch window
• Decoration durability failed after two washes

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Organic Denim was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The rhinestone embellished chains was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Delicate Pleating was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
5. 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 2.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a National Retail Chain launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.

What we would repeat

Approve the hand feel on the actual bulk fabric — proto cloth always behaves differently.
