Effortless Stylish Children Down Jacket in Mohair with Crystal Embellishment

Effortless Stylish Children Down Jacket in Mohair with Crystal Embellishment

A Shopify DTC Brand approached us to develop a effortless stylish children down jacket around a single idea: crystal embellishment, executed in mohair. The capsule was destined for France and needed effortless 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

• The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
• Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
• The sample did not match the runway reference

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Mohair was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The stylish children down jacket was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Crystal Embellishment 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 8-week window.
• Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
• The a Shopify DTC Brand 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.
