The Buzzy French Bag Brand Every Parisian Fashion Insider Is Wearing
Recently, the best-dressed fashion insiders have been spotted wearing bandana-print bags throughout the streets of Paris. Curious to know more about the totes the style set has been clutching everywhere from Saint Germain to the Marais, I uncovered the brand behind the bags: Call It By Your Name.
The brand, founded by Colombe Campana, is centered on traditional bandanas sourced from South Carolina, which are then upcycled and handcrafted into bags and accessories in Paris. The silhouettes range from oversize totes to bucket bags to small zipped pouches. Some are also finished with playful hand-embroidered details, such as hearts in red thread, two-tone mushrooms, or the word ‘LOVE’ in a rainbow of colors. Ahead, shop the cult bandana-print bags from Call It By Your Name—a buzzy accessory we expect to see in the wardrobes of the fashion set this season.
