"Intuitions" Range / Theme Geometry A piece that celebrates love thanks to the reminiscent pattern of the molecular structure of oxytocin from the babywearing wrap used. Its clean and geometric lines, proportions, and storage make this bag your daily ally.

Its story

For this piece, I chose a babywearing wrap with a pattern reminiscent of the molecular structure of oxytocin, the love hormone.
It is accompanied by scraps of lamb leather and Haute Couture fabric. Gunmetal-colored hardware completes this ensemble.

A genuine crush for this bag model, named “Nostalgie”, to the point that I made several versions, which rarely happens. Its proportions and lines immediately won me over.
From now on, I will only make this model as a custom-made commission.

Pair it with the “Embarq'Tout” XL Companion.

Near Perfect?

Slightly reduced price (normal price 620€) because not all stitches are absolutely perfect and the leather has a tiny original scratch on the back side.

Common questions

Why are there "Near-Perfect" items and what are they?

As part of my sustainable view of the modern luxury fashion, creating as little waste as possible is central. You can learn more about this on my Soulful Values page.

Where/How are they made?

I make all my products in my workshop in the city of St Just St Rambert in the Loire department (42). I use several machines depending on needs: a professional sewing machine, an industrial sewing machine, a serger, a press (for eyelets, rivets, etc.), an iron press, and a motorized skiver.

I carefully choose my technical supplies (interfacings, hardware, etc.) and some innovative materials (such as cotton-backed cork or silicon faux leather) from trusted suppliers.

My other fabrics and materials are mostly upcycled and come from renowned babywearing brands, dormant stocks from Haute-Couture/High-End houses (clothing and furnishings), scraps from High-End leather goods houses, as well as “seconds” from specialized boutiques (especially for faux leather) or from personal collections found at flea markets or on specialized second-hand websites.

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.
