Romantic Boys' Denim Varsity Jacket in Ribbed Jersey with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons
Romantic Boys' Denim Varsity Jacket in Ribbed Jersey with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons
A Film Production House approached us to develop a romantic boys' denim varsity jacket around a single idea: mother-of-pearl buttons, executed in ribbed jersey. The capsule was destined for Italy and needed romantic 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 boys' denim varsity jacket 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
- 1,500 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Film Production House 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.
