Romantic Lightweight Feather Red Jacket Women in Tencel with Gathered Sleeves
Romantic Lightweight Feather Red Jacket Women in Tencel with Gathered Sleeves
A Surf School approached us to develop a romantic lightweight feather red jacket women around a single idea: gathered sleeves, executed in tencel. The capsule was destined for Germany 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
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- Delivery missed the collection launch window

How it was built

- The lightweight feather red jacket women was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Gathered Sleeves was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

- The a Surf School launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
