PIECED PURSES
Each one of a kind purse is created from vintage Japanese kimono fabrics and featuring the "haori himo" - an often elaborately woven tie used to close the haori jacket. This unique design, developed by Stephanie Goddard, offers lots of pockets and an artistic use of both the fabrics and the himo ties just as they would be tied on a haori. Three sizes - large with shoulder straps, medium clutches, and smaller makeup and jewelry pouches.
