Luxe Adjustable Kids' Mannequin in Vegan Leather with Asymmetric Closure

Luxe Adjustable Kids' Mannequin in Vegan Leather with Asymmetric Closure

A Streetwear Collective approached us to develop a luxe adjustable kids' mannequin around a single idea: asymmetric closure, executed in vegan leather. The capsule was destined for India 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

• The sample did not match the runway reference
• The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
• Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Vegan Leather was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The adjustable kids' mannequin was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Asymmetric Closure was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
5. Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

Result

• 600 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
• Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Streetwear Collective 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.
