Sculptural Silk Flower Brooches in Sequined Knit with Waist Tie Belt
Sculptural Silk Flower Brooches in Sequined Knit with Waist Tie Belt
A Military Supply Unit approached us to develop a sculptural silk flower brooches around a single idea: waist tie belt, executed in sequined knit. The capsule was destined for Canada and needed sculptural 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
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Sequined Knit 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.
- Waist Tie Belt 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 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Military Supply Unit 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.
