Its story

“Deer You” is one of the two prototypes of my new home-made “Bucket” bag pattern.
It aims to be an elegant and cute ode to love: the softness and charm of its two deer silhouettes on a pink background blend with the trendy and chic style of gray high-fashion denim. Quilted motifs on the back (hearts) and underneath (the word “love”) add a touch of whimsy.

I wanted a bucket bag because it's a very versatile format that suits both casual occasions like outings with friends and more sophisticated romantic dates.

So, I chose to create my own pattern, and as often happens, inspiration strikes at the most unexpected moments...
I was drawn to the bag of a referee at a post-basketball game dinner of my husband. I examined it closely (but discreetly from a distance) to pick the details I liked the most, and then I made sketches until I got a result that satisfied me.

I chose to make two prototypes for the two versions that spoke to me the most. For this, I used a cushion cover, even though I wasn't very comfortable with its pink color, but after all, it's good to step out of one's comfort zone. To add a touch of refinement, I paired it with a neutral color and chose two different materials: a more sophisticated “ostrich” patterned faux leather purchased from a seamstress, and more “relaxed” high-fashion denim that I've been using in small pieces for the past two years.

Thus, the home-made “Seau Tease” pattern was born, a small cylindrical bag that is both charming and distinguished.

Charlotte’s baby wrap

After ordering a bag from stock, Charlotte realized it would be too small. I offered to make her a custom, larger version, and she sent me her baby wrap to transform.

Common questions

What is the protective pouch included with the bags?

Every bag I create comes with a bespoke protective pouch, made by hand in my studio.

This isn't throwaway packaging — it's a permanent accessory, meant to be used every day to store your bag when you're not using it, protect it from scratches and dust, or keep it safe when travelling.

It's made in organic cotton satin, sewn to the exact dimensions of your piece, with an organic cotton drawstring to close it. It's branded Marie Alhomme.

For wallets, coin purses, and smaller accessories, I wrap the piece in tissue paper produced locally and sustainably (Papeteries de Montségur, Loire), rather than in a pouch.

"I love it, but I’m afraid it won’t be easy to wear"

A bold piece often becomes your signature.
It pairs beautifully with a simple outfit and naturally draws compliments.

I can also share styling ideas if you’d like.

Can I modify or cancel my order?

It's possible to modify or cancel an order within 6 hours of purchase. To do so, please contact me as soon as possible via hello@marie-alhomme.com or by phone at +33(0)661356222.

Once your order has been shipped, I cannot cancel it. In that case, you will need to wait to receive it and then return it within 14 days of delivery, at your own expense, and I will refund you according to the terms outlined in the Terms and Conditions.

Where do the fabrics and leathers used in Studio Créatif pieces come from?

As a rule, these are never the fabrics you entrust to me for a bespoke piece: those remain yours alone. The only exception: sometimes a client explicitly gives me her offcuts and asks me to find them a new life elsewhere. In that specific case, and only with her agreement, they may end up in a Studio Créatif creation.

Outside of these particular cases, Studio Créatif pieces come from my own research: rescued leathers, fabrics found at flea markets or second-hand, dormant stocks from luxury houses, offcuts from high-end leather goods... I choose and combine them following my inspiration of the moment, with no specific order behind them.
