Can a furnished puppy still look flat at 4 weeks?

Hi everyone!
I’m trying to understand coat development before puppy pick day at 6 weeks and would love some breeder/owner opinions 😭
Mom is an F1B Goldendoodle and dad is a Multigen Goldendoodle. The litter is currently 4 weeks old (5 puppies total).
One puppy I really like still looks a little more flat/straight-coated right now, but the breeder says the puppy is definitely furnished.
My goal/look preference is:
soft plush fleece texture
loose wavy/shaggy teddy bear coat
not a very straight flat coat
My question is:
Can a puppy that looks flatter at 4 weeks still develop into a soft plush wavy fleece coat by 6–8 weeks or later?
Or by 4 weeks is the coat texture already pretty obvious?
I know nobody can guarantee adult coat type yet, but I’d really appreciate hearing real experiences from doodle owners/breeders 🙏
I’m probably overthinking this because I only get one pick
