Let Guests Design Their Own Handbags

Here's an idea for fashion-focused events we found at an event last week: 1154 Lill Studio lets guests become designers by creating their own handbags. Lill representatives come equipped with a selection of fabrics from their collection of 200 seasonally rotating patterns and samples of their 25 styles of bags. Guests choose a bag style and drape it in the fabrics of their choosing; their choices are recorded and sent to the Chicago-based production team, which then assembles the bags. Prices range from $25 to $185 per bag, and the products are shipped to guests within three to four weeks. And bags aren't the only options: New items to customize include headbands and leather wallets.
