Bohemian Marine Layer Women Pullover Hoodie in Merino Wool with Contrast Topstitching

Bohemian Marine Layer Women Pullover Hoodie in Merino Wool with Contrast Topstitching

A Mining Company approached us to develop a bohemian marine layer women pullover hoodie around a single idea: contrast topstitching, executed in merino wool. The capsule was destined for Italy and needed bohemian 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
• Delivery missed the collection launch window
• Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Merino Wool was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The marine layer women pullover hoodie was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Contrast Topstitching was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
5. Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

Result

• 600 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
• Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Mining Company 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.
