Choosing Your Leather Top
Leather tops are the entry point to a leather wardrobe and the piece most people underestimate. A lambskin camisole under a blazer changes an outfit entirely, and it asks far less commitment than a jacket.
We cut tops exclusively in lightweight lambskin. Anything heavier will not move the way a top needs to.
Fit & Sizing
Bust and waist are the measurements that matter. Strapless and tube styles are the least forgiving, since there is no shoulder support to distribute the fit. Shirts and blouses are the most forgiving.
Leather Tops Through the New Zealand Seasons
Year-round. Lightweight lambskin tops are among the few leather pieces that genuinely work in a New Zealand summer, and they layer under blazers and coats through winter.
Common Asked Queries
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you wear leather tops in summer?
Yes, in lightweight lambskin. A leather camisole, tank or crop top is comfortable through New Zealand summer evenings. Choose lighter, less structured styles for December and January.
What do you wear under a leather top?
Most EXODUS tops are lined, so nothing is needed. Unlined camisoles and tanks can be worn directly against the skin — lambskin is soft enough — or over a fine cotton layer if you prefer.
How do you clean a leather top?
Never machine wash. Wipe marks with a barely damp cloth and air dry away from direct heat. Anything beyond a surface mark needs a specialist leather cleaner.
