Avant-Garde Mens Black Down Jacket With Hood in Silk with Open Back

Avant-Garde Mens Black Down Jacket With Hood in Silk with Open Back

An Event Management Company approached us to develop a avant-garde mens black down jacket with hood around a single idea: open back, executed in silk. The capsule was destined for Mexico and needed avant-garde 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

• Delivery missed the collection launch window
• The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
• Decoration durability failed after two washes

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Silk was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The mens black down jacket with hood was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Open Back 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

• 120 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
• Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
• The an Event Management Company 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.
