"Cogitations" Range / Collection Memory “Minimaliste” is an adorably small but surprisingly spacious and sophisticated handbag. A tribute to the sun and the energy of life.
Its story
“Minimalist” is so cute and chic that you’ll want to take it everywhere with you!
Luckily, with its compact yet surprisingly spacious volume complemented by its 2 interior pockets, you can carry the essentials and make your friends green with envy...
I picked up this fabric in memory of my trip to Guadeloupe in 2005.
I loved its vibrant and varied colors, its ancestral pattern, and its textured weave that evoke the sun, warmth, smiles, music, exotic fruits, and the beach...
I kept it for a long time before deciding what to do with it, as I didn’t want to make a mistake.
After making a superhero cape for my eldest, I knew I wanted to explore other facets of its personality through a mini collection I called “Madras”.
A collection in which I wanted to explore the different interpretations I could bring to this fabric. I therefore chose very different patterns to push this concept as far as possible while broadening my own comfort zone.
Pair it with any other in this collection.
