Differentiation Strategy

To target a value-oriented segment, this version forgoes the expensive all-over stud detailing for a cleaner, more minimalist aesthetic.

The materials are swapped for cost-effective alternatives like faux suede and basic metal hardware.

By simplifying the design and materials, the product can be offered at a much lower price point while still capturing the essence of the trendy shape.

Success Replication

This specification retains the trendy '90s-inspired, slouchy shoulder bag silhouette that is a key part of the reference product's appeal.

It also keeps the practical top-zip closure and a single, wide shoulder strap for comfortable wear.

The focus is on replicating the overall shape and carrying style, which are crucial to its current popularity.
