Sculptural Unisex Outdoor Cap in Mohair with Bow Detail
An Independent Fashion Designer approached us to develop a sculptural unisex outdoor cap around a single idea: bow detail, executed in mohair. The capsule was destined for China and needed sculptural 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
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes

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 unisex outdoor cap was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
- Bow Detail 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
- 900 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
- Unit cost held within 1.5% of the approved quotation.
- The an Independent Fashion Designer 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.
