Tailored Custom Family Sweatshirts in Ribbed Jersey with Sculptural Draping

Tailored Custom Family Sweatshirts in Ribbed Jersey with Sculptural Draping

A Pet Grooming Franchise approached us to develop a tailored custom family sweatshirts around a single idea: sculptural draping, executed in ribbed jersey. The capsule was destined for the United Arab Emirates and needed tailored 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

• Delivery missed the collection launch window
• The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
• Decoration durability failed after two washes

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Ribbed Jersey was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The custom family sweatshirts was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Sculptural Draping 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

• 120 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
• Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Pet Grooming Franchise 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.
