Its story
This cute little clutch is both compact and spacious.
The glossy and matte, the shadow and light... a concentration of contrasts in an ultra chic and playful small format.
A piece of High Fashion fabric bought from a local couturier, cork on 100% cotton back made in small quantities in Portugal, scraps of metallic leather salvaged from a saddler-harness maker... the luxury of beautiful materials and textures combined with the sustainability of the approach and the virtuosity of the finishes.
“Prison Dorée” (Golden Prison) 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!
