Editorial Lightweight Feather Red Jacket Women in Sequined Knit with Chunky Chain Strap
Editorial Lightweight Feather Red Jacket Women in Sequined Knit with Chunky Chain Strap
An Airline Catering Team approached us to develop a editorial lightweight feather red jacket women around a single idea: chunky chain strap, executed in sequined knit. The capsule was destined for China and needed editorial 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
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- Delivery missed the collection launch window

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Sequined Knit was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The lightweight feather red jacket women was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Chunky Chain Strap 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
- 1,500 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The an Airline Catering Team launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
