Vintage-Inspired Girls Denim Bomber Style Jacket in Satin with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons

Vintage-Inspired Girls Denim Bomber Style Jacket in Satin with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons

A Shopify DTC Brand approached us to develop a vintage-inspired girls denim bomber style jacket around a single idea: mother-of-pearl buttons, executed in satin. The capsule was destined for the United Arab Emirates and needed vintage-inspired 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

• Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
• Delivery missed the collection launch window
• The sample did not match the runway reference

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Satin 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. Mother-of-Pearl Buttons 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

• 2,400 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
• Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Shopify DTC Brand 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.
