K. Slade
pattern design
Kelsea Slade, creator of K.Slade, is not only a luxury leather goods designer, but also an advocate for women in business and entrepreneurship. Her American heritage line of classic goods, featured on Darling and beyond, includes pieces made to carry for years - from backpacks to classic clutches and zip wallets made to nestle inside. The best part? Each piece is completely designed and manufactured in the USA. And to make things even better, all components of the bags are sourced from American manufacturers too.
Every couple of years, K. Slade launches the Artist Series, created to make art wearable. We worked with Kelsea to create a number of designs - 3 of which were printed on her leather goods. The Pink Wave clutch was marked as the Artist Series clutch (launched late 2017), while additional patterns were launched alongside it.
