Marie A.'s boots N° : SM-000

This is the story of a pair of snakeskin boots that had been sitting bored in its cardboard box for several years... and of how it transformed in a beautiful and useful bag that I enjoy everyday.

📖👢🐍 This is the story of a pair of snakeskin boots that had been sitting bored in its cardboard box for several years.
✨ It dreamed of another life where it could once again enjoy the daylight.
🤰🏻 But its owner, formerly a young and slim Parisian with a bustling social life, had since become a Mom... in the countryside.

💁🏻‍♀️ This pair of boots was mine, and today, thanks to my vision and expertise, they are thriving and living their best life in the form of this lovely little bag... which I also enjoy!

It's my everyday bag, compact yet practical, stylish and assertive, both chic and edgy... I love it!

Stéphanie's heart-stopper

Stephanie fell in love with a bag I'd shown her in a discussion around an online LinkedIn challenge, and decided to get one made in her favorite colors for Christmas. After choosing the materials from my stock together, I quickly made it so she'd have it in time under the tree. This fun and exciting collaboration resulted in this daring and classy shoulder bag.

Common questions

"What if I’m disappointed? / I’ve had a bad experience before"

Every project is approved step by step with a detailed quote, photos, and regular updates.
Nothing is started without your agreement, ensuring a result that meets your expectations.

Can I transform the clothes of a loved one who has passed away, as part of grieving?

Yes, and these are among the most deeply moving projects I get to work on. Your father's jacket, your grandmother's coat, the jumper you can't bring yourself to give away because it still smells a little like her... These fabrics carry something irreplaceable. Transforming them into an everyday object means giving them life again without erasing them, and for many people, this is part of the grieving process itself: the memory is no longer folded away in a drawer, it's worn, or displayed. I approach these projects with particular care: we take time to talk about the person, the story behind the fabric, what you want to preserve and how. The finished piece isn't just a bag — it's an object that continues to bear witness. And if several family members each want a keepsake made from the same garment? That's possible too. One piece of fabric can give birth to several different pieces, for several different people. We look at what the material can offer, together, without wasting any of it.

Do you offer support for a wedding, before, during or after the ceremony?

Yes, a wedding is a moment I can support at several stages.

Before or during the ceremony, we can create a fashion or décor piece carrying the presence of an absent or deceased parent, or matching pieces where each partner wears a little of the other's fabric. Afterwards, the dress or suit can become a bag, a wallet or, if you'd rather have something to display than to wear, a kinusaiga panel: the wedding fabrics take the shape of a wall piece, to keep on display in your home rather than folded away in a garment bag.
