'You Can't Judge A Handbag By Its Price Tag' says The Fashion and Textile Museum in London, introducing a new course.
From a Kelly to a Baguette, no other accessory has the same allure as a handbag.
Supported by Newham College and Shanghai Trio, the course is aimed at students and professionals alike, as well as anyone wanting to understand the accessories market. Competitively priced, it represents excellent value for money too.
Celia Joicey, Head of Fashion and Textile Museum, says:

From a Kelly to a Baguette, no other accessory has the same allure as a handbag.
But a classic handbag design is the sum of many parts.
Next month 'An Introduction to Handbag Design Course' at the Fashion and Textile Museum (3-7 September 2012) offers all enthusiasts a chance to learn the elements of great bag design, as well as an irresistible opportunity to create your own. Led by Ann Saunders, the course is an excellent opportunity to use ideas and experience to design a range of bags for the future. In five days, it covers not only the context for design and the role handbags play in the fashion industry, but also the design process: from the research stage, to sketching out ideas, choosing materials and planning a collection.
