A new bag for new times - The Halston 24 0 Comments

Just as the Spring bulbs are beginning to poke through the sticky muddy soil, so I'm beginning to find the headspace to stick my toes back into making bags again. The studio took a long time to crank back into life - and to move into a designated workspace - but it still feels temporary - I get the feeling that all is not quite as it should me - and I can't really EMBED as I would like.

Despite this background DIS-EASE - I discovered I wanted a new bag for a new year - and the beloved Halston and Brooklyn bags which I myself wear every single day, year after year - were starting to become a little, well - over loved - don't get me wrong - they still have decades more wear in them - but as a designer, I do like to ring the changes - and so Halston 24 has been born. It's scaled up in size and has a lovely contrasting coloured base.

           

It's still made using the wonderfully supple Italian tumbled cow hide that St Leonards has used for years - there's never any fear of flaking or shedding from this metallic - but it's just got bigger.

Head over to the cross body section now to get all the deets - Have a peaceful and loving February - and maybe treat yourself to the new Halston 24 too.
