MORNING
RUSH
Call it morning panic. The alarm clock rings, your eyes pop open, and you’re immediately off to the races, filled with anticipatory dread about the day’s myriad tasks. It’s super stressful! While most people can simply set an alarm clock and get up at the desired time, almost everybody has trouble rousing themselves at some point, and many people frequently sleep through their alarms. Do you have trouble waking up on time in the mornings despite desperate attempts to do so? Because I do! I feel useless when i wake up late, its a mood’s breakdown for a whole day. So yes, it’s important for me to prepare how I wake up for the next day. Frequently I have routines to avoid a morning rush, here are some of my tips: 1. Choose your daily outfit at night before Prepare your goods next to exit door or foremost put them in your car would be a better choice 2. Showering at late night before, thus no need a morning bath 3. Ask your dearest one to have you a morning call. It doesn’t work for me, but at least it’s boosting up my morning mood! 4. At last, my best shot is setting alarm ringtone with Counter Strike theme. I straightly wake up from such a serial-killer-dream. Totallyone of the best decision that i made in entire life! The point is, how you start your morning really matter for your mood in entire day.Therefor, “Have a great morning” means “Have a nice day people!”

Can you describe the collection to us? Who do you imagine wearing your designs? All of the products we made are reversible, means you can use inside and outside OR front and backside of the bag. Each side has its own design, so you basically can use it intwo different occasions. You only need to reverse it, then voila! You get a completely different bag clinging your body! Our newest collection (released this month) is going to be less shape and simple, but playing with more fabric and colors.
All of the people! But what’s in top of our mind is male or female age 18-25 who have high mobility yet fashionable.
What were the inspirations behind the collection? People esp. our customer, fashion, and life itself.

“Reversible unique & stylish“ REVERSE
What music do you listen to when you’re designing? Well, actually there is nothing in particular, it changes depending on what mood that we want to bring through our designs. Sometimes it can be really fun and excited, but in otheR time we listen to soft and comfy songs.
Tell us something we probably don’t know about Reverse! The two sides in our bag also represent our different perspectives in seeing life.

How do you feel when you see people wearing your design?
What do you think about local fashion nowadays? What’s in?
Of course we are happy, really! and we will learn how they use it: are they comfortable enough? what kind of style do they use while using one particular bag? and so on. By doing these, we will improve day by day, hoping more and more people using our bag and appreciate the uniqueness of it, that is reversible.
We think that our local fashion is improving day by day in many ways. It means that the competition is going more competitive yet we need to improve our products to survive (we can see from more agencies are cat fighting to organize local brands bazaars). This is good, really good. It implies two main things that are more people in Indonesia appreciate and enjoy our local products and there are bigger opportunities for Indonesia (us as well) to compete with other countries in the world. One thing that we like from local products (and is happening) is the local brands we have now don’t forget their own particular style
Describe Reverse in 3 words... Reversible, unique, and stylish
