Contemporary Summer Fedora Hats in Ribbed Jersey with High-Low Hem
A Private Clinic approached us to develop a contemporary summer fedora hats around a single idea: high-low hem, executed in ribbed jersey. The capsule was destined for Morocco and needed contemporary 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
- Delivery missed the collection launch window

- High-Low Hem was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
- Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

What we would repeat
Keep one process owner on both sides. Most delays come from hand-offs, not machines.
