Parisian Mens Bandana in Genuine Leather with Open Back
Parisian Mens Bandana in Genuine Leather with Open Back
A Kidswear Subscription Box approached us to develop a parisian mens bandana around a single idea: open back, executed in genuine leather. The capsule was destined for Switzerland and needed parisian 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- 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.
- Genuine Leather was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The mens bandana 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
- 600 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Kidswear Subscription Box 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.
