01 / Customer need

The existing product no longer solves the customer need.

Missing size coverage, unsuitable length, insufficient support, material or comfort issues, an unavailable colour or a missing product function can justify a deeper brief.

02 / Differentiation

The brand needs product-level differentiation.

A proprietary silhouette, recognisable fit, exclusive material placement, custom hardware, original print or a product combination not available in ready stock can create a strong reason to develop.

03 / Project readiness

The evidence and project inputs are becoming clearer.

Bring references, a moodboard, an existing product to improve, a physical sample, target measurements, material direction, target price, quantity, colour plan and launch timing where available.

04 / Selective investment

Customise the product, not every variable.

A focused custom hero product can sit alongside Ready Stock and Light Custom. Partial / Full Custom starts from 300 pieces per product, with custom details confirmed by Caressia sales so the commercial case stays visible.

Move into partial / full custom when the product opportunity is stronger than the added complexity.
