Vintage-Inspired Windbreaker Jacket Streetwear in Tulle with High-Low Hem

Vintage-Inspired Windbreaker Jacket Streetwear in Tulle with High-Low Hem

A Streetwear Collective approached us to develop a vintage-inspired windbreaker jacket streetwear around a single idea: high-low hem, executed in tulle. The capsule was destined for Austria and needed vintage-inspired 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

• Fabric hand feel changed between production runs
• The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
• Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Tulle was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The windbreaker jacket streetwear was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. High-Low Hem was applied in a controlled process to keep every piece consistent.
5. Bulk ran with in-line inspection; a photo report was shared before shipment.

Result

• 240 pieces delivered inside the 6-week window.
• Unit cost held within 2.0% of the approved quotation.
• The a Streetwear Collective 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.
