Runway-Inspired Spaghetti Strap Tank Top in Genuine Leather with Asymmetric Closure

Runway-Inspired Spaghetti Strap Tank Top in Genuine Leather with Asymmetric Closure

An Independent Boutique Brand approached us to develop a runway-inspired spaghetti strap tank top around a single idea: asymmetric closure, executed in genuine leather. The capsule was destined for South Korea and needed runway-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

• The previous factory could not hold consistency across sizes
• Unit costs were too high for a boutique price point
• The sample did not match the runway reference

What we specified

How it was built

1. Reference garments and moodboards were translated into a measurement spec, not just photos.
2. Genuine Leather was confirmed with lab dips and a hand-feel approval before grading.
3. The spaghetti strap tank top was prototyped on the fit model, then revised twice before pre-production.
4. Asymmetric Closure 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

• 400 pieces delivered inside the 8-week window.
• Unit cost held within 3.0% of the approved quotation.
• The an Independent Boutique Brand 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.
