ASTORY's Shop Announcement

Story Atelier De Paris - Expressive Handbags to define the aesthetic narrative of your life. Astonishing apparel and accessories for women with interesting lives.

These handbags are handmade, sophisticated, stylish, and SUSTAINABLE! Carrying one my handbags is a stylish way to help sustain the environment by repurposing gorgeous 19th century fabric and trims!
It is my goal to make delightful handbags that showcase the life and look of the owner - which could be you!

Each of these handbags comes with a story of their own that started before I began sewing them. I import and sew with 18th and 19th French or English fabrics mostly. I love these vintage fabrics because they are so luminous and have so much dimension to them. The fabric has been loved before by individuals who have salvaged and saved these lovely fabrics created at a different time by different cultures. If you choose to purchase one of my story handbags, you continue the story, and make it your own. And help to sustain our environment. Do good fashion - stylish, sophisticated, and SUSTAINABLE! Tres Chic!

Thanks for shopping at Story Atelier de Paris!
