Minimalist Marine Layer Women Pullover Hoodie in Organza with Open Back
Minimalist Marine Layer Women Pullover Hoodie in Organza with Open Back
A Cycling Team approached us to develop a minimalist marine layer women pullover hoodie around a single idea: open back, executed in organza. The capsule was destined for France and needed minimalist 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
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Organza 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.
- Open Back 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
- 120 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Cycling Team launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Approve the hand feel on the actual bulk fabric — proto cloth always behaves differently.
