La Vie Devant Soie has just released its spring/summer collection of cute and eco-friendly silk purses.
While silk is often used for evening bags, La Vie Devant Soie reminds us that the fabric works just as well before five. Larger styles like the Gibralter, River, and this cute KBag are ideal for everyday use. Of course there are evening purses too including the bow accented Maggy and appropriately named Luxe.
La Vie Devant Soie isn’t just about cute handbags though. The label was founded when designer Sandy Blain traveled to Cambodia in 2002. There she met many talented silk artisans who couldn’t find work in their field, or job security. And so Sandy created the label to put their traditional silk-working skills to work. Today all La Vie Devant Soie bags are made by women participating in a social reinsertion program in Cambodia’s Stung Treng province.
La Vie Devant Sole’s spring/summer collection is available in selected boutiques worldwide and online from UpFactory.
