Romantic Grey Beanie in Ribbed Jersey with Feather Trim
A Hotel Group approached us to develop a romantic grey beanie around a single idea: feather trim, executed in ribbed jersey. The capsule was destined for Taiwan 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
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

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 grey beanie was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Feather Trim 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
- 240 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Hotel Group 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.
