Statement Kids Aviator Hat in Cashmere with Cut-Out Detail
A Film Production House approached us to develop a statement kids aviator hat around a single idea: cut-out detail, executed in cashmere. The capsule was destined for Italy and needed statement 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Cashmere was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The kids aviator hat was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Cut-Out Detail 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 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Film Production House 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.
