Avant-Garde Plus Size Equestrian Clothing in Suede with Asymmetric Closure

Avant-Garde Plus Size Equestrian Clothing in Suede with Asymmetric Closure

A Corporate Procurement Team approached us to develop a avant-garde plus size equestrian clothing around a single idea: asymmetric closure, executed in suede. The capsule was destined for Chile 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

• Decoration durability failed after two washes
• The sample did not match the runway reference
• The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Suede was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The plus size equestrian clothing was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Asymmetric Closure 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 8-week window.
• Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Corporate Procurement Team 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.
