Avant-Garde Girls Denim Bomber Style Jacket in Velvet with Delicate Pleating

Avant-Garde Girls Denim Bomber Style Jacket in Velvet with Delicate Pleating

An Airline Catering Team approached us to develop a avant-garde girls denim bomber style jacket around a single idea: delicate pleating, executed in velvet. The capsule was destined for India and needed avant-garde 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
• Delivery missed the collection launch window

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Velvet was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The girls denim bomber style jacket was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Delicate Pleating 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

• 400 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
• Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
• The an Airline Catering Team 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.
