Boutique Vintage Wedding Gloves in Merino Wool with Open Back
Boutique Vintage Wedding Gloves in Merino Wool with Open Back
A Coffee Roaster Chain approached us to develop a boutique vintage wedding gloves around a single idea: open back, executed in merino wool. The capsule was destined for Turkey and needed boutique 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
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
