Bohemian Carhartt Beanie in Tulle with Asymmetric Closure
A Kidswear Subscription Box approached us to develop a bohemian carhartt beanie around a single idea: asymmetric closure, executed in tulle. The capsule was destined for Colombia and needed bohemian 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Tulle was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The carhartt beanie was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Asymmetric Closure 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
- 600 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Kidswear Subscription Box launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
