Luxe Stylish Children Down Jacket in Silk with Padded Shoulder
Luxe Stylish Children Down Jacket in Silk with Padded Shoulder
A Gym Chain approached us to develop a luxe stylish children down jacket around a single idea: padded shoulder, executed in silk. The capsule was destined for India and needed luxe 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
- Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

How it was built

- Silk was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
- The stylish children down jacket was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Padded Shoulder 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
- 600 pieces delivered inside the 10-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Gym Chain 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.
