Chic Viking Belt Accessories in Sequined Knit with Delicate Pleating
Chic Viking Belt Accessories in Sequined Knit with Delicate Pleating
A Restaurant Chain approached us to develop a chic viking belt accessories around a single idea: delicate pleating, executed in sequined knit. The capsule was destined for the Netherlands and needed chic 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
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

What we would repeat
Approve the hand feel on the actual bulk fabric — proto cloth always behaves differently.
