Sophie Cano Paris has joined forces with the Notre Dame Cathedral to launch an intricately beaded handbag collection. Still undergoing reconstruction from its devastating 2019 roof fire, the accessory company aims to honor the building's history. This crafty and improbable fashion collaboration is part of Sophie Cano's dedication to travel-inspired accessories.
Bearing the intricate handiwork of a leather workshop near Delhi, India, the collection includes a beaded handbag and a circular wallet. The bag itself is decorated with white patterned beadwork surrounding the vibrant picture of the Notre Dame Cathedral. The circular matching wallet is a reprise of the French Gothic edifice's famous rose windows. All items in the collection boast bright hues of blue and red, ideal for pairing with vibrant summer outfits
