Luxe Winter Leg Warmers in Genuine Leather with Delicate Pleating
A Fast-Growing Startup Label approached us to develop a luxe winter leg warmers around a single idea: delicate pleating, executed in genuine leather. The capsule was destined for Czechia and needed luxe 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
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

What we would repeat
