Elena Panagopoulos is the creative mind behind Hanro and, with her flair for timeless elegance, makes the ‘Cotton Seamless’ spaghetti top shine again and again. With precise lines and a clear design approach, she preserves the iconic character of this essential while carefully developing it further. Her aim: perfection in shape, material and comfort - for a top that will last for generations.

WHY IS THE ‘COTTON SEAMLESS’ SPAGHETTI TOP STILL AN ESSENTIAL FASHION ITEM TODAY?

The secret lies in its perfect combination of elegance and comfort. It suits every woman and emphasises their natural beauty - whether discreetly under a blouse or as a stylish basic under a blazer. This versatility makes it a timeless classic.

WHAT CHARACTERISES THE DESIGN THAT HAS ENSURED ITS SUCCESS FOR DECADES?

Purism without compromise. The design is deliberately minimalist and forgoes unnecessary details or seams. It demands the utmost precision and is only possible thanks to our special knitting technique. Made from high-quality cotton yarn, which is processed to the highest quality standards in our in-house production facility in Austria, the top stands for durability and resistance. It is a classic example of slow fashion that remains contemporary.

WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD FOR THE ‘COTTON SEAMLESS’ SPAGHETTI TOP?

Our aim is to continue to develop this iconic basic and to keep setting new trends with special editions. For the 40th anniversary of our iconic essential, we have a summer full of exciting editions in store: from natural colouring methods to jewellery-inspired details and classic contrasts. As 2025 draws to a close, we're celebrating the festive season with a glamorous collection that includes a limited edition spaghetti top. Adorned with sparkling Swarovski stones inspired by the starry sky, this highlight will be perfect for Christmas and New Year's Eve.

WHAT OTHER ICONS DOES HANRO HAVE PLANNED FOR THE FUTURE?

We are working on creating new basics that carry the spirit of timeless elegance and quality. We take our time with these developments because true classics are not created overnight. They become icons thanks to the people who wear them.
