Chic Stylish Children Down Jacket in Mohair with Sculptural Draping
Chic Stylish Children Down Jacket in Mohair with Sculptural Draping
A Dance School approached us to develop a chic stylish children down jacket around a single idea: sculptural draping, executed in mohair. The capsule was destined for France and needed chic 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
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- The sample did not match the runway reference

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 stylish children down jacket was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Sculptural Draping 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 6-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The a Dance School launched on schedule and reordered the same specification next season.
What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
