BUILT bags featuring Alexander Girard designs

Girard built

Some of Alexander Girard's best known designs are getting another outing on these bags from New York company BUILT. They're reproducing three of his classic mid-century designs on a range that encompasses everything from phone sleeves to shoulder bags. 

Slightly controversially for a designer who was well known for his textile designs, these bags are made from neoprene. Their shapes reflects the rest of BUILT's bag range and which is likely not to everyone's taste. However, a nice detail is the charm that comes on all the bags - a mini version of Girard's 'Love' design. 

Prices start at $25 for the phone sleeve.
