Minimalist Wedding Shawl in Velvet with Fringe Trim
Minimalist Wedding Shawl in Velvet with Fringe Trim
A Cycling Team approached us to develop a minimalist wedding shawl around a single idea: fringe trim, executed in velvet. The capsule was destined for Saudi Arabia and needed minimalist 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 sample did not match the runway reference
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Velvet was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The wedding shawl was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Fringe Trim 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
- 1,500 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Cycling Team 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.
