Summer Olympics 2024 - Haitian Hero's
The Summer Olympics is finally here. This time, Haitians shine like never before, from beautifully handmade garments to their strength and tenacity in every performance.
In the Opening Ceremony, the Haitian athletes wore standout uniforms designed by Stella Jean, a Haitian-Italian designer. She is known for her ethical fashion approach, as seen in the women's sleeveless blazer made from recycled material. The uniforms also featured artwork by Philippe Dodard, a Haitian painter, highlighting Haiti's artisanship.
These outfits aimed to symbolize peace and the resilience of Haitian people during their country's challenges, as featured in Women's Wear Daily. In celebration of these incredible athletes, we would like to highlight some of our leather goods that represent the colors of the Haitian flag.
Red: Our Optimal Shoulder Bag is a standout piece. The handbag is crafted from surplus leather by skilled Haitian artisans. It would add a pop of color to any outfit.
Blue: Our Ideal Crossbody Bag and Trifold Wallet on sale are versatile and timeless. These pieces are created with woven detailing, utilizing traditional techniques.
Green and Cognac: Our Fall accessories are vibrant and unique, handmade in the solar powered factory in Haiti.
We would love for you to explore our sustainable leather goods and carry a piece of Haiti. Celebrate the spirit of the Olympics and the presence of Haitian athletes with impactful bags and accessories prioritising makers, materials and the planet.
