Christmas Market at The Soup Kitchen, Northern Quarter, Manchester

Here are a few quick snaps of the bags that will be for sale at the christmas market which is taking place at the soup kitchen in the northern quarter in manchester this saturday (12pm-6pm).

Since I graduated Ive been developing the bag I designed to accessorise my collection. Ive had a few bag requests and this lead to making lots of different variations. Some are embellished (I can't resist a bit of embellishment!)
There are lots more designs and I will be taking pics and posting soon.
All of which will be available to buy on saturday.

They've come a long way since the dip dyed stage I posted about here and the zip colouring here and then the tricky sewing together bit here!


Here is the flyer for this Saturday, come and check it out!

Alexander Wang Resort 2012 ready to wear

All of this collection is amazing! I dont think there is one piece I wouldn't wear.

The coat is the highlight for me.

Dip dyed

I have been experimenting with colour for the surfaces of the bags I am making. I love this raw state that they are in after being through various washing processes. Some have been matched with metallic leatherettes and a few with the zips I posted about here.

More pics to come
