Private Label Women's Loafer Design
Custom Loafers Design for Private Label Women's Footwear Brands
Develop custom women's loafers for private-label collections — penny and tassel loafers, horsebit and bit styles, chunky lug-sole loafers and backless loafers — built around your brand direction, materials and target market.
What We Do
Custom loafers, developed around your brand.
Lajwanti Designers develops custom women's loafers for private-label footwear collections — penny and tassel loafers, horsebit and bit styles, chunky lug-sole loafers and backless loafers — built around your brand's customer, market and price point. Every style starts from your references or brief, moves through the design stage as a written specification, then into a paid sample for review and approval before production planning.
We work with fashion labels, boutiques, retailers and private-label buyers who need a coordinated loafer range that reads as one line — the same last, sole story and material palette carried across styles — not one-off pairs.

Style Variations
Loafer shapes we develop.
Every loafer can be developed as a single style or as part of a coordinated collection.
Penny & Tassel
The classic slip-on. Penny apron front or tassel detail, low stacked heel and a clean vamp — the everyday core of a loafer range.
Horsebit & Bit
Metal hardware across the vamp for a dressier loafer. Popular in fashion, premium retail and smart-casual lines.
Chunky Lug-Sole
Platform and lug-sole loafers for trend-led collections. Heavier sole unit, statement profile, stronger retail presence.
Backless & Mule
Collapsed backs and open-heel loafers for spring/summer and transitional ranges. Easy slip-on styling with the same upper story.
