The Inspiration Behind the Design of the Edie Bag
The Edie tote bag was introduced in 2006 and the original inspiration behind the Edie bag was British “It Girl” Sienna Miller who at the time was playing fashion icon Edie Sedgwick in the motion picture “The Factory Girl”.
The Factory Girl is a 2006 American biographical film based on the life of 1960’s underground star, socialite and Andy Warhol’s superstar Edie Sedgwick”.
The Edie Tote Bag Detailing
The Edie bag was designed with special attention dedicated to the detailing of the handbag. The front of the Edie bag features shiny gold button shaped hardware pieces that embody the “Mod” influence from the film “The Factory Girl. The strips of leather that descend below the gold buckles are only connected to the handbag at the very top of the leather piece leaving the rest of the strip of leather unattached from the bag. As a result when you carry the Edie bag the unattached leather strips swing and sway effortlessly making the bag incredible playful and fun to carry. This technique was done in an effort to capture the essence of Sienna Miller’s playful spirit.
