Look of the day

KIKI DÜREN

The dress: Zara. The shoe: also. You know that again. So, can I now tell a cool story about the bag it? The purchase of this item went against all the rules of it-bags: 1. it was made of plastic and 2. you could clearly see that. But the little treat matched well with everything and the size was just handy. And that's how you carry a bag to the point of exhaustion. When the lining almost came out and even my father said, “Look, what do you need such a plastic thing for? That’s not fashionable at all?” I knew something was wrong.

He took the bag away, but said he would come back with a better, new one. With a sad pout, I was left behind. A few weeks later, I got the bag back. My father had completely taken the thing apart, dissected it, and made an exact replica, but from leather. And as a bonus, he even put my initials on it. “There, now you can move forward with it again,” he said. Well dad, I certainly can. This handmade custom-designed Düren & Co will stay in the family for years.
