Costella Handbags

Luciana Ellington, a Brazilian photographer living in California started Costella in 2007. Her grandmother (Antonietta) taught her how to sew, so she uses her skills to make her own designs. The inspiration for the bags comes from various fabrics, she looks at the forms, patterns and colors and pieces them together as well as little details like vintage brooches, belts, etc. She uses existent materials to build something new. Lots of pockets and space to fit everyone's needs. The bags are very unique, a refreshing change to the fashion world. A creative line for young women of a discerning and unconventional fashion sense. Each Costella handbag is designed with impeccable detail and design, hand-sewn using the finest materials and presented in a limited number. There's nothing conservative about a Costella handbag.
