Statement Stylish Children Down Jacket in boucle with Padded Shoulder

Statement Stylish Children Down Jacket in boucle with Padded Shoulder

An Airline Catering Team approached us to develop a statement stylish children down jacket around a single idea: padded shoulder, executed in boucle. The capsule was destined for the United States and needed statement 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
• Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. boucle 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. Padded Shoulder 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

• 900 pieces delivered inside the 12-week window.
• Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
• The an Airline Catering 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.
