The Essentials: simple, efficient, stylish designs (and a contest!)
Launching The Essentials range: three new sentimental leatherwork designs (the Ravio', the Cabo', the Cubo') to personalize with your own materials. Plus a coloring contest to celebrate!
Why a new range?
The Essentials range was born from your feedback. Many of you wanted access to bespoke sentimental leatherwork with simpler, more affordable projects... without sacrificing the care put into every finish.
The answer: clean, efficient designs, fewer modification options, and customization focused on what matters: your sentimental fabric or leather, or my materials if you don't have any.
The first three designs
The Ravio': a compact crossbody worn on a shoulder strap, zip closure, with an interior patch pocket. Perfect for hands-free days. From âŹ165.
The Cabo': a generous, structured tote with a wide opening, two magnetic snap closures and an interior patch pocket. From âŹ125.
The Cubo': a small origami coin purse, press stud closure. Small piece, big attention to detail. From âŹ75.
Three finishes to keep things creative
Even though the patterns are fixed, every piece stays unique through the finishes, the way your sentimental fabric is worked onto the exterior of the bag:
- Signature: organic and fun, in free shapes inspired by my visual identity. Perfect for small fabric scraps;
- Plénitude: generous, rounded patches to showcase large prints and patterns;
- Contradictions: straight, geometric shapes that deliberately play against the curves of the design.
The coloring contest: until May 3rd
To celebrate this launch (and my 46th birthday đ), I've put together an unexpected little contest: coloring sheets to download and interpret however you like.
Each sheet shows all three designs with one of the finishes applied. Color them, paint them, collage them, mix them... whatever moves you.
Download the sheets:
How to enter:
- Print one or more sheets;
- Let your inspiration run wild: pencils, paint, collage, photomontage, anything goes;
- Post your creation on Instagram (max 2 per person), tagging me + #EssentielsColoriage;
- Before Sunday May 3rd, midnight (CET).
I'll pick the version that moves me most, and its creator will be able to have the design of their choice made for real at -46% â in honor of my age, obviously đ
I can't wait to see what you come up with!
