“Floraison Automnale” N° CO-200

A shoulder bag made from chocolate and yellow leathers combined with a floral canvas featuring pink and yellow flowers.

"Intuitions" Range / Theme Nature Floral—but neither shy nor dull. A bag with character: practical for everyday use, with a dash of cheerful boldness.

Its story

Between the sunny energy of yellow, the deep chocolate, and the vintage floral print, “Autumn Bloom” combines classic charm with a lively twist.
Sturdy, functional, ready to lug around your essentials (and a bit more), it makes a bold statement—and does it well.
In short, a bag that’s not afraid to get noticed... are you?

To be honest, I’m usually not a fan of floral prints, but this one won me over—it wasn’t too dainty, thanks to those fuchsia blooms. That said, I wasn’t quite sure how to use it...
This year’s “mystery sewing” session provided the perfect opportunity, and I got to pair it with these leathers (and even the zipper!) that matched just right. The zip even let me have some fun with playful pulls. Sure, it meant using a nylon zipper—but sometimes, practicality wins ;)

As always with blind sewing sessions, I loved seeing the result gradually come to life before my eyes, and I’m really happy with how it turned out: a floral bag that’s anything but boring—who would’ve thought?

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.

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.
