Parisian Satin Night Robe in Tulle with Smocked Panel
A Manufacturing Plant approached us to develop a parisian satin night robe around a single idea: smocked panel, executed in tulle. The capsule was destined for Portugal and needed parisian 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
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Tulle was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The satin night robe was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Smocked Panel 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
- 120 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Manufacturing Plant 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.
