Decoration, customisation – Jane Birkin forever cemented the concept that your handbag should be an expressive extension of your personality. Curated by Nina Tucker.

The actress, model, singer, and muse’s bag was a metaphor for a life well lived, overflowing with daily essentials and practical accessories. With waves made and bags dutifully decorated in the last few international seasons, the trend has finally reached our stores. A playful riff on high-low dressing, it asks you to adorn your bag with charms, trinkets and textures to showcase your character and elicit an ounce of joy. Nostalgic, elegant, miss-matched – let your personality shine.

Start with a classic carry-all or your favourite handbag, layering on a chic charm, a silk scarf, and a whimsy keychain or three.
