Accessories design

Bags and accessories designed for Milaner and other freelance work (2020–2022), with a focus on craftsmanship, material exploration, and working closely with an artisanal way of making.

Lizard Ring Crossbody

Designed as part of the AW 21-22 collection for MILANER.

This city bag features a gold ring, a padded frame on the flap and lizard patterned leather. Its light weight and small size are perfect to hold all the essentials. A round buckle makes the crossbody strap adjustable.

The gold round hardware plays with a harmony of curves and angles. The softness of these elements is complementary with the angles of the flap and the boxiness of the overall shape of the bag.

Satchel

Developed for MILANER AW22, this was my first bag for the brand. Designed to fit a 15-inch laptop, it brings together function and a refined, everyday feel.

The front is in grained leather, contrasted with finely woven sides. Its trapeze shape is defined by clean lines and vertical-stitched handles. A magnetic top closure keeps it secure while remaining easy to open. It is finished with a gold logo and an optional crossbody strap.

The design draws on the timeless Céline satchel, reinterpreted through MILANER’s signature Italian weaving.

Miley Half Moon & Clutch

The Miley Half Moon launched for AW20–21.

The intention was to create a soft, fluid bag. The body is built on continuous, curved lines, while the front view introduces subtle angles that bring structure. The woven leather, adds depth and texture.

For the summer, we wanted to introduce a smaller evening version. I elongated the shape and brought in new colours and textures, like raffia.

Yellow Shoulder Bag

This bag, that was designed for a Freelance client in 2021, was thought as a compact statement piece, with a structured shape softened by the grained leather. The curved top handle follows the volume of the bag, while the flap and metal clasp keep things simple and functional.

The idea was to take a familiar shape and make it more sculptural and playing with clean lines and soft construction. The bright yellow gives it a more bold, contemporary feel.

Saddle Bag

This saddle crossbody was made for MILANER.

Made out of lizard patterned leather and gold accent hardware, this bag is a balance between both bold and delicate features. A duality also lays between the roundness of the saddle and the linearity of the crossbody strap buckle and the clasp.

As I wanted to keep this style minimal, small but characteristic details were added. The clasp is the central element of the piece and it needs to be pushed to open. The gold MILANER logo was added on one end of the crossbody strap.

Sunglasses

I designed a series of glassware for MILANER in their SS21 collection:

Wide frame sunglasses
Cat-eye sunglasses
Black frame

This series marked the brand’s first sunglasses, with a vintage and minimalist feel. The idea was to find a balance between retro and more contemporary shapes, taking inspiration from the iconic 60s cat-eye, while also exploring bolder, more modern silhouettes. The result is a set of styles that feel both timeless and fresh.
