Capsule Silk Flower Brooches in Crochet with Contrast Topstitching
Capsule Silk Flower Brooches in Crochet with Contrast Topstitching
A Wholesale Distributor approached us to develop a capsule silk flower brooches around a single idea: contrast topstitching, executed in crochet. The capsule was destined for Saudi Arabia and needed capsule 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 previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

- Crochet was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The silk flower brooches was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Contrast Topstitching was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

What we would repeat
