Designer Jacket Zipper Slider in Washed Linen with Feather Trim
A Maternity Wear Brand approached us to develop a designer jacket zipper slider around a single idea: feather trim, executed in washed linen. The capsule was destined for Mexico and needed designer 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

How it was built

- Washed Linen 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.
- 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
- 120 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Maternity Wear Brand 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.
