No longer is design limited to FIT and Parson’s graduates; the new batch of independent handbag designers come from all sorts of interesting places and all walks of life. Vicki Vlachakis knows this all too well. She is a former Mercedes-Benz designer turned handbag designer of Nooni .
The Nooni collection features Vlachakis’ love of sophisticated lines, sculptural shapes, bold graphics (like you’d find in a Benz) as well as her passion for luxurious materials. The bags use red, white, brown, tan and black Italian vegetable tanned leather with gold plated hardware and laser cut designs.
