"Cogitations" Range / Collection Feminities Chic and whimsical, with its abstract and modern flowery design and its audacious lines. Not only stylish and practical, but also an ode to meticulous craftwork and creativity.

Its story

Not too long ago, I attended a conference for women entrepreneurs, linked to an all-women business network I belong to, called “Bouge Ta Boîte”.
Numerous inspiring workshops later, when it came time to leave, we were gifted a “My Little Box”, a box filled with products from a partner brand, and mine (as there were different ones) was themed “Icons” and contained a neck scarf that inspired me right away.

I combined it with some very supple white fake leather I’d reclaimed from another maker and a light sage shiny poplin. Its playfulness and softness, along with the symbol it wanted to convey (that of a free, audacious woman) resonated with my aesthetics and I knew I would make some really cool pieces with it.
One of these is this slick Clutch Wallet with its audacious lines and its gold trim. Of a good size but not cumbersome, it keeps all your papers organized and can even fit your phone, and you can carry it with its wristlet or slip it in your bag.
The other is the “Nouds-Velle Vague” Pouch.

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

"I like it, but I already have plenty of bags."
This one isn’t “just another bag”: it’s a true work of art with a soul and a story, not a simple accessory.
How long does it take for a custom piece?
The time it takes will greatly depend on the complexity of your request, the availability of components, and my schedule, which varies depending on the time of year. On average, expect between 4 and 10 weeks. The quote I provide will contain an accurate estimate of the timeline, and I commit to responding as accurately as possible to your requests, while respecting the creative and production process.
What materials do you use to make my pieces?
Your sentimental fabric or leather is always at the heart of the project. For the rest, here is what I use by default:
  • Exterior (beyond the fabric you provide): salvaged leather by default (cowhide, lambskin, goat, pig…); optionally: certified organic cotton canvas, cork on 100% cotton backing, Nisiar (grape marc "leather")… No faux leather, ever.
  • Lining: 100% cotton poplin, cretonne or satin (organic where possible), 100% linen canvas, wool or wool-silk blend…
  • Interfacings (by design): certified organic cotton batting, Decovil Light or Heavy, Texon, Jeffitex…
  • Hardware: metal only — gold, antique gold, chrome, gunmetal, antique bronze, copper/rose gold, matte black, rainbow… Special colours available on request (extra cost and lead time).
  • Handles & straps: leather, canvas, your own fabric (if enough quantity), cork… in simple or bi-material styles. Or pre-made strap in 100% organic cotton or polycotton, plain or multicolour, per brief.
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.
