Alison's babywearing wrap N° : SM-015

Alison is my first international customer, as she is American. She contacted me as soon as she saw that I had a scrap of a babywearing wrap that she had fallen in love with.

Alison is my first international customer, as she is American. She contacted me as soon as she saw that I had a scrap of a babywearing wrap that she had fallen in love with. She asked for a convertible backpack that can be worn as a shoulder bag or crossbody, and I suggested the “Oh Seau Chic,” which is simpler than the model she initially saw among my spontaneous creations.

We had a lengthy discussion about the complementary materials, and she ultimately chose cork on 100% cotton denim for its durability (her initial choice was 100% organic cotton canvas). We also added an additional external zip pocket in addition to the one inside.

Here's her reaction upon receiving it:

Ooommmggg the pictures do not do this justice. It's amazing!! [...] I have admired your creations for a while. When I saw you had this scrap I had to reach out!!

Common questions

What kinds of objects can you create, beyond bags and wallets?

Probably more than you'd imagine!

Here's what I can make from your sentimental fabrics:

Leather goods: backpack, crossbody, belt bag, handbag, sling bag, travel bag, tote, clutch, pouch, coin purse, wallet...

Accessories: pocket mirror (Ocebo'), babywearing mirror (Coucou Hibou), tie...

Textile/clothing: bomber jacket (child or adult), low slippers or ankle booties (sizes EU 25 to 47)...

Textile art: Kinusaiga panel, a Japanese craft technique, very graphic, which transforms your fabrics into a framed wall piece.

If you have an idea that's not on this list, bring it up anyway. I haven't yet met a request I couldn't find some way to approach. And if I genuinely can't make it work, I'll tell you honestly from our very first conversation.

What if I have no idea what model I want?

No worries! I don’t lack imagination, or experience...
I guide you with questions and will suggest several visual directions (photos, videos, mockups).

“Your style is very distinctive. Will it really feel like mine?”

My creative world guides my eye, but your aesthetic takes priority.
I put my know-how at the service of your story, not the other way around.
