Your new handbag – chic and green

     The garage, the grocery story, the pharmacy, the hardware store, your grandparents’ attic – these might not be the first places you think of when you need new fashion accessories.  But these are some of the places where young designers form  the Cracow School of Art and Fashion Design (www.ksa.edu.pl) have found materials to create their unique handbags.

     The final results are playful and original but also elegant, smart and attractive. All were crafted from things such as vinyl records, cans, and soup boxes.  These old objects which seem useless and whose only destination is a trash bin have been transformed into stylish pieces. The designed handbags are not only an excellent demonstration of students’ creativity but they also show their concern for the environment and interest in recycling. With the designs students demonstrated that nothing is too useless to be transformed into high fashion and that we don’t need to pay big money to have  accessories that are original and stand out in a crowd.

INVESTING IN FASHION WEEK’S OTHER PRODUCT – FASHION PHOTOGRAPHY – MAY BE A BETTER BET SAYS BONHAMS

With London’s Fashion Week already a memory there is a good argument for capturing that memory in film imagery that will outlast the fashion and provide a longterm investment.

Jocelyn Phillips, Head of Bonhams Photography Department says: “This London Fashion Week the designer frocks were out in force.  From Farhi to Westwood, McQueen to Williamson, six days of non-stop shows saw hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of cloth creation sashaying down the catwalks of WC2.  How many of those masterpieces were made to be worn and how many simply to be looked at?  And at what price?  As the paparazzi click away, sometimes catching no more than a blur of the original, it is worth remembering that there is another fashion experience – static, but every bit as alive – running alongside the catwalks.”  Read more
