bag volumes Models with an unprecedented structure, because it combines retro icons with an eclectic design. A hoboinspired handbag. A semi-rigid bucket style bag with sturdy bottoms. The evolution of the Bowling Bag into Basketball Bag to carry over the shoulder. A stiff saddler handbag in semi-vegetable leathers, with four-colour printed laser-finished borders. A Doctor Bag, with two-tone accordion effect. A beauty bag to be used as a handbag. The traditional travel beauty for women turns into a cult object for men. Also in mini and medium size versions. Box models are equipped with tubular handles and braided details. The man sees great classic versions in a modern and ironic key. Medium and small volumes can expand their size with the help of zips and strategic openings. Interesting experiments of basic geometric shapes for squared bottoms, trapezoid sides or details of oval structures. Functional models like the small bucket bag have an oval base and an asymmetrical spiral design. Bucket bags with a curved base have double shoulder straps. A small bag with square base and a long adjustable handle. For him, the hot models are travel and office luggage hybrids to wear as a backpack, even if structures are inspired by traditional luggage. Body Dress Belt Bags replace the City Backpack. The traveling man purse becomes a practical and fashionable article for urban use. Proposals for innovative, ultra-flat Tech Backpack continue. Shoppers, bags, briefcases are simplified in the structure and in the fastenings. The bag body seems to be cut clean to contain and support a soft pouch choked by a hidden elastic drawstring. Semi-rigid and semi-soft they are perfect for subdued, comfortable volumes, without the claim to follow trends. Double handles and the internal shoulder strap dispose of sturdy bands for the support points. Attention is paid to redesign everything with rounded or smoothed lines. This novel design is particularly important for the New Basic, which is increasingly becoming the new classic trend.

WOMAN
HOBO INSPIRED. STRUCTURED. Recalling a structured Hobo made of vegetable leather, this semi-rigid bag to carry by hand hides a bag made of ultra-soft material closed with a drawstring. A balanced contrast in a model that does not go unnoticed.
STAUD
BUCKET STYLE. SEMI RIGID. A large semi-rigid band acts as a frame for a bucket made of naturally tumbled leather to emphasise the egg shape. A crossbody model to wear almost like a container of precious coins.
THE ROW
PRECIOUS WALKING BOX. This model, a mix between a flying saucer and a small jewelery box, becomes a handbag. The circumference is taken to extremes with a huge piping almost as if it was a bumper to symbolically protect its content.

WOMAN EVOLUTION OF THE BOWLING BAG IN A BASKETBALL BAG. Sport is increasingly influencing fashion. The classic basketball inspired this easy and practical opening bag: the double slider zip hides a gusset on each side to allow easy access to the inside. Large capacity for a medium-sized model.
GUCCI
SADDLER HANDBAG. RIGID. A small Saddler with a distinctive feature. This article highlights both the cleanliness and linearity of the model’s lines and accessories. A successful contrast between a saddle construction, by its very definition sporty, and the preciousness and richness of metals.
MARNI
SMALL BUCKET WITH OVAL BASE. Four important studs on the base and sustained leather allow the bag to maintain its shape. The internal magnet supports the flower closure. The hammered and deliberately disproportionate gold handle makes it almost an object of design.

WOMAN
BUCKET WITH ROCKING BASE. An atypical bucket bag with a rocking base to carry on your shoulder. The bag-body seems to be cut clean to contain and hold up a soft bag obstructed by a hidden elastic drawstring.
TL-180
SMALL BAG WITH A SQUARE BASE AND A LONG HANDLE. Made with a patchwork of crocodile prints. The prints reproduce various parts of the reptile: side, tail and belly.
REJINA PYO
ACCORDION EFFECT. A bag inspired by the doctor bag with an accordion effect and reinterpreted in a futuristic version. The inspiration that can be received is to combine the typical compartments of a wallet organiser with a heavy and exaggerated zing (frame). A large handle for such a small article completes the maximalism of the object.

RIGID HANDBAG. RETRO STRUCTURE. A small, lightly trapezoidal handbag. The shaped flap contains an important metal closure with pressure opening through the central sphere. The union of lines and the closure give the article a vague retro touch.
RATIO ET MOTUS
TRAPEZOIDAL SHAPE. STRUCTURED. A zipper bag with trapezoidal shape and minimal lines to carry by hand. The elongated and deliberately geometric shape and the snap closure with a sphere are the elements that play with the contrast of the shapes
RATIO ET MOTUS
SHOPPING STYLE. TRADITIONAL PROCESSING. This leather shopping bag recalls the more traditional aspect of craftsmanship. The pattern has a simple construction, but a refined design. An enhancement of simplicity with few cuts!

WOMAN SMALL SHOULDER BAG. A small chain cross body bag with a thin leather shoulder strap. The mix of canvas effect fabric and vegetable tanned leather blend with the important brass closure. A small object with a distinctive feature.
TL-180
HOBO BAG WITH BOW SHOULDER STRAP. The leather softness emphasised by a nappa treatment builds this square hobo model knotted on the shoulder strap. Leather worked as a fabric to build a bag that fits like a dress.
LOEWE
MINI SHOPPING. This mini shopping bag evokes wicker baskets and woven leather bags at the same time. The transparency of leather processing can be limited by a removable fabric container to be either made ton sur ton with leather or in more contrasting colours

MAN BEAUTY HANDBAG The traditional travel beauty for women turns into a cult object for men. Strictly hand-carried. In leather or in washable fabric, but it is essential that the structure recalls a luggage item: a large cover for practical access to the inside.
DIOR HOMME
BOX-SHAPED. TUBULAR HANDLE. A brand new carry handbag for men with a box shape and a tubular handle. The faces are soft and contained in the gussets applied as a support. The single colour and the single material are decisive elements to bring out the essence of the article
EUDON CHOI
BACKPACK INSPIRED BY TRADITIONAL LUGGAGE. The most traditional luggage continues as a source of inspiration for men’s leather models: the 48-hour suitcase becomes a backpack. The suitcase is just a faint memory though. The article is in fact built on a soft base, the reinforced corners create the squared effect.

MAN BACKPACK INSPIRED BY A BRIEFCASE. The most historic form of the briefcase is recovered from the past, enriched and completed to be updated to the contemporary glamour spirit. Functional pockets decorate face and gussets. For the more fashionable variant you can also wear it as a backpack thanks to the comfortable straps that embrace the shoulders.
THOM BROWNE
BUGATTI STYLE. The purity and essence of the Bugatti model, a term that by now has become part of the leather goods glossary. This model with an impeccable construction, sophisticated materials and perfect finishes becomes a sophisticated accessory to complete a masculine tailored outfit.
ERMENEGILDO ZEGNA
TRAVEL BAG. Used for a short trip, or to complete a set, this bag wants to draw attention to the importance that luggage items had and still maintain to define men’s wardrobe. Elegant, essential, strictly in leather.Â

MAN TECH BACKPACK. Lycra, neoprene and resistant, elastic, waterproof and heat-insulating materials build backpacks for an innovative consumer. Zips and accessories are made of plastic with oversized dimensions. The too exaggerated logo is thermo formed.
MONCLER
CITY BACKPACK. This form of nylon backpack is super modern. Its shape is essential with clean apparently minimal lines. Inspiration comes directly from the world of sport, one of the sports where it is crucial to express maximum strength in the shortest possible time: boxing
NN07
TRAVEL PURSE. PRATICAL AND FASHION. The travel purse becomes a practical and fashion article for urban use. Essential in its form, but super-equipped with comfortable pockets it is designed to hold everyday objects. The sharp, intentionally rough, cuts of the skin want to emphasise the joint of double-layer material and the resulting depth contrast.
