A Skeleton Bag

I was in Gastown's Rubi & Kino the other day and came upon this gorgeous excuse for a shoulder bag:

The lovely sales associate told me that it's by Montreal designer Denis Gagnon (in collaboration with Fullum & Holt- a century+ old Montreal company that specialises in handcrafted leather goods). With M0851, Roots and now Fullum & Holt it appears as though Canada produces some quality leather products! Exciting!

You may not be able to tell but the front section of the bag is a small, detachable wristlet clutch! I deeply appreciate all efforts of creators to increase the functionality of a product- instead of one bag, you're purchasing three different options (all eerily structured doctor bag/skeletal/ribbed/body-con fierce sacs). I think it's worth paying attention to designers that put more thought into how their products are going to be interacted with after taking it home- the journey has only just started upon purchase! 

** Important Note**  Canadian First Nation communities have been producing beautiful, entirely handmade, raw and treated leather goods for a very long time....usually at better price points too! I forgot to mention that earlier, an annoying mishap.
