Its story

“Envolée” invites you to escape during a busy workday, contrasting the gray of the pavement with the turquoise of the sea, the rigid shape with the lightness of birds and petals taking flight... An elegant piece with a touch of whimsy.

After a discussion with a friend, I wanted to create a more functional yet elegant bag, and this pattern that I've had for a long time without finding the right materials for it seemed ideal.
While searching the workshop for a turquoise fabric for an upcoming collaboration (shh, it's still a secret), I came across this piece of babywearing fabric whose size was perfect for the task. Luckily, I had these scraps of imitation leather that I had instinctively collected from a colleague, and they were exactly the right shades.

The result is a shoulder bag that allows you to effortlessly and stylishly carry everything you need for a day at the office or a client meeting: a laptop, a water bottle, a book, a large wallet, notebooks, and more.

Delays may occur due to reasons beyond my control (e.g., related to the carrier).

"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.

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.
