Chic Adjustable Kids' Mannequin in Crochet with Tonal Embroidery
A Hospital Group approached us to develop a chic adjustable kids' mannequin around a single idea: tonal embroidery, executed in crochet. The capsule was destined for Colombia 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
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

- The adjustable kids' mannequin was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Tonal Embroidery was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

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