Parisian Stretchy Knit Swaddle in Mohair with Cut-Out Detail
Parisian Stretchy Knit Swaddle in Mohair with Cut-Out Detail
A Cycling Team approached us to develop a parisian stretchy knit swaddle around a single idea: cut-out detail, executed in mohair. The capsule was destined for Morocco 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs

How it was built
- Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
- Mohair was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The stretchy knit swaddle was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Cut-Out Detail 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
- 120 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
- The a Cycling 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.
