Created in collaboration with Maria Brito and Natalie Frank, a supremely talented artist who loves to mix mythology, fantastical creatures, women, ideas of feminism in her work.

Originally created as a way for collectors to have more affordable access to Natalie Frank's work, this bag is a true piece of art. Made from the same acrylic company that blue-chip galleries use, and museum-quality printing, it is so much more then a fashion accessory. As a wearable work, it’s a perfect unique addition to any collection.
