Runway-Inspired Marine Layer Women Pullover Hoodie in Ribbed Jersey with High-Low Hem
Runway-Inspired Marine Layer Women Pullover Hoodie in Ribbed Jersey with High-Low Hem
A Kidswear Subscription Box approached us to develop a runway-inspired marine layer women pullover hoodie around a single idea: high-low hem, executed in ribbed jersey. The capsule was destined for the United States and needed runway-inspired 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
- Decoration durability failed after two washes
- The sample did not match the runway reference

How it was built

- Ribbed Jersey 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.
- High-Low Hem 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 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Kidswear Subscription Box 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.
