Modern Tea-Length Mother Of The Bride Dresses in boucle with High-Low Hem

A Streetwear Collective approached us to develop a modern tea-length mother of the bride dresses around a single idea: high-low hem, executed in boucle. The capsule was destined for Belgium and needed modern 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
• Decoration durability failed after two washes
• The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. boucle was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The tea-length mother of the bride dresses was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. High-Low Hem 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

• 2,400 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
• Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Streetwear Collective 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.
