Editorial Black Pullover Hoodie Mens in Ribbed Jersey with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons
Editorial Black Pullover Hoodie Mens in Ribbed Jersey with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons
A Private Clinic approached us to develop a editorial black pullover hoodie mens around a single idea: mother-of-pearl buttons, executed in ribbed jersey. The capsule was destined for Kenya and needed editorial 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
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Ribbed Jersey was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The black pullover hoodie mens was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Mother-of-Pearl Buttons 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
- 240 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Private Clinic 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.
