“Chic & Choc” N° CO-181
"Intuitions" Range / Theme Geometry Play of lights and a concentration of contrasts come together in this small pouch, compact yet spacious.
Its story
This cute little clutch is both compact and spacious.
Playing with light between sparkling sequins, satin-like faux leather, metallic leather, and ultra-matte denim... a concentration of contrasts in an ultra chic and playful small format.
A piece of High Fashion fabric bought from a local couturier, a special garment faux leather scrap salvaged 2 years ago, and a dormant stock of High Fashion denim revived over 2 years ago... so different and therefore absolutely destined to be paired.
I had already planned a bag with this combination but I couldn't resist the temptation to test it on a smaller format. Now I am even more excited to make said bag!
“Chic & Choc” is one of the 5 pieces from the “Poisson d'Avril” (April's Fool) collection, born from an impulse when Shamballa Bags released this adorable pouch pattern that inspired me a lot. In search of whimsy, I got sucked in and immediately imagined the most incredible combinations of materials and colors:
✨ mirror leather, metallic bouclé, faux leather, sequins, high-couture denim, synthetic fur, sequined tulle, cork on cotton, satin, linen…
🎨 gold, rainbow, silver, copper, turquoise, sage, fuchsia…
🤩 A feast for the eyes and the senses!
