Effortless Men'S Golf Sweater Vest in Mohair with Open Back
Effortless Men'S Golf Sweater Vest in Mohair with Open Back
A Department Store Buyer approached us to develop a effortless men's golf sweater vest around a single idea: open back, executed in mohair. The capsule was destined for Indonesia and needed effortless 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- The sample did not match the runway reference

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Mohair was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The men's golf sweater vest 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
- 1,500 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Department Store Buyer 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.
