Sculptural Jacket Zipper Slider in Satin with High-Low Hem
A Railway Operator approached us to develop a sculptural jacket zipper slider around a single idea: high-low hem, executed in satin. The capsule was destined for Hong Kong and needed sculptural 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- The sample did not match the runway reference

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Satin was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The jacket zipper slider was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- High-Low Hem 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 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Railway Operator 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.
