Coperni's signature Swipe Bag is a contemporary oval-shaped design that is now available in sustainable plant-based materials thanks to a collaboration with Maisie Williams. The new creation from the French designer introduces a series of apple leather bags that can be accented with mini pins that were inspired by fruit label stickers.
The fun and mindfully created bag designs include styles like the Cross Body Swipe Bag and the Mini Cross Body Swipe Bag, which can easily be decorated with detachable pins.
Crafted in Italy, bags make the most of apple skin as a sustainable alternative to leather and a material that would otherwise go to waste. The vegan leather alternative bags can be found in colorful styles like Forest Green, Silver and Berry.
