Wheee, yet another self-manufactured bag coming up on Yventually =) I'm trying to introduce more self-manufactured products on the site so i can forsee more exciting collections in months to come!
You can see the full preview album here on our Facebook page:
Once again, it was just G and me for the photoshoot! =) Looking through our preview pics, can you guess where we did our shoot? Yup, Marina Barrage!! Nonetheless, much like our usual morning shoot, the sun was still merciless that weekday morning even at 8.30am -_-"
Our barangs for the day! I love my super obiang-looking trolley because it's so spacious! Who cares about the weird stares on the train? Practicality is the key to a good photoshoot. AHAHHAHA.
Since I don't have many behind-the-scene photos to share, let me talk about the inspiration for this bag instead ;)
This design is inspired by the Marc Jacobs' Wellington satchel that i spotted online months back. It is a simple design but i was drawn to the gorgeous red shade as well as the cute hearts stitching (spot it spot it??)
Even Korean artistes couldn't resist. hehehe.
When the sample piece arrived, i had a hard time deciding the kind of material i wanted. I knew i had to manufacture it in red but picking a matte faux leatherette doesn't seem like a good idea because it'll probably end up dull.
Therefore, my supplier allowed me to pick 2 different materials - Leatherette with a slight sheen for the Red and Orange bags and a matte leatherette material for the Nude and Mustard ones =) Love how the bags turned out because the slightly-glazed look of the Red and Orange bags worked out perfectly, giving the bag a more sophisticated and expensive look =)
A look at the 4 colors:
The moment i saw this pic of G carrying all 4 bags, a word popped up - "SUN". Looking at the colors reminded me of the sun rise/sun set scenes i see in pictures so it was easy deciding on the name for this design - SOLEIL, which simply means "Sun" in French =)
If you have been reading my travelogue entries on Hong Kong and Macau recently, you would have seen me carrying the Soleil bag! No prizes for guessing which color i kept =P
Hope i got you excited for this launch as well! hee.
Don't forget our launch at 2pm on Mon (20Aug) alrighty! Have a good long weekend ahead~~
Until next time!
