Modern Wool Coats in Ribbed Jersey with Hand-Finished Hem
A Fast-Growing Startup Label approached us to develop a modern wool coats around a single idea: hand-finished hem, executed in ribbed jersey. The capsule was destined for Czechia and needed modern 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
- The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
- Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
- Delivery missed the collection launch window

- Hand-Finished 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.
