Bagslag is a new quirky women's bag label attracting shrewd but shameless bag-aholics. The label launched its first collection in 2009. All bags are made using soft - handle real leather with quality zips and trims. Creative pattern-cutting techniques give each bag a fresh look. Linings are cut from luxurious fabrics in their trademark colour pink.
Bagslag designs are edgy, but practical. Bagslag also produce limited numbers and colours of each style for selected boutiques.
Bagslag was founded by Lee Sylvester. Lee wanted to create a bag for herself that other women would drool over! “It had to give me the upper edge on everyone else's bag. It's one-upmanship!†Lee has worked as an apparel/graphics and accessories designer for various sports fashion brands such as Sergio Tacchini, Puma and Umbro. She has clothed sports
stars such as David Beckham and the England football team – but she wanted to focus on her passion for bags!
The latest style in the Bagslag collection is The Tracey bag. This has become a signature piece for the label. It's made from a spiral cut piece of leather fastened together with a long zip wrapping around the bag. Each colour exudes a different attitude for the day or night. The collection is available at their website www.bagslag.com
