Capsule Silk Bonnet in Genuine Leather with Asymmetric Closure
Capsule Silk Bonnet in Genuine Leather with Asymmetric Closure
A Uniform Supplier approached us to develop a capsule silk bonnet around a single idea: asymmetric closure, executed in genuine leather. The capsule was destined for Indonesia and needed capsule 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 sample did not match the runway reference
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

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 silk bonnet was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Asymmetric Closure 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
- 400 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Uniform Supplier 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.
