Avant-Garde Marine Layer Women Pullover Hoodie in Genuine Leather with Lace Inset
Avant-Garde Marine Layer Women Pullover Hoodie in Genuine Leather with Lace Inset
A Boutique Fitness Studio approached us to develop a avant-garde marine layer women pullover hoodie around a single idea: lace inset, executed in genuine leather. The capsule was destined for Kenya and needed avant-garde 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
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Genuine Leather was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The marine layer women pullover hoodie was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Lace Inset 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
- 2,400 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Boutique Fitness Studio launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Lock the colour standard before grading; every downstream approval depends on it.
