Boutique Muslin Swaddle Blanket in Vegan Leather with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons

Boutique Muslin Swaddle Blanket in Vegan Leather with Mother-of-Pearl Buttons

A Wholesale Distributor approached us to develop a boutique muslin swaddle blanket around a single idea: mother-of-pearl buttons, executed in vegan leather. The capsule was destined for Colombia and needed boutique 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
• The sample did not match the runway reference
• Delivery missed the collection launch window

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Vegan Leather was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The muslin swaddle blanket was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Mother-of-Pearl Buttons 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

• 1,500 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
• Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Wholesale Distributor 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.
