Bohemian Summer Fedora Hats in Washed Linen with Padded Shoulder
A Gym Chain approached us to develop a bohemian summer fedora hats around a single idea: padded shoulder, executed in washed linen. The capsule was destined for Turkey and needed bohemian 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
- Delivery missed the collection launch window
- The sample did not match the runway reference
- Decoration durability failed after two washes

- The summer fedora hats 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.

- Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.

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