Tinkerbell Handbag
2006, leather, lucite
While most of my handbag creations don't often make headlines nationwide, this one certainly did. It sparked a conversation about the use of dogs as fashion accessories after it criticized Paris Hilton's actions. As a testament to its impact, the handbag has found a permanent home in the renowned Museum of Bags and Purses in Amsterdam. Its assembly features a unique interlocking method that I developed, which adds to its distinctive and exceptional design.
