Crossbody Bags

Type

Crossbody Bag

Size: Large

Approximately: 42cm wide; 36cm height | 6cm  across the base.

 

Description

Inspired by the iconic fashion designer Esme Young and her love of statement bows, this bag is all about drama, elegance, and playful sophistication. Crafted from the most luxurious 480GSM heavyweight upholstery fabric, The Esme Tote pairs a rich caramel body with a striking vanilla bow across the front — the kind of detail that makes heads turn. At the top, the adjustable shoulder strap ties into another bow, because when it comes to bows, more is more.
 

Fully lined and finished with a simple snap button closure, this crossbody tote was designed as a true statement piece. While it keeps its silhouette clean (no pockets, no fuss), its oversized bow design makes it the perfect accessory for those who adore fashion with personality.
 

Because sometimes, a bag isn’t just a bag — it’s a conversation starter. 💛

Please Note
Each MeganGaea bag is lovingly handmade, making every piece truly one of a kind. Due to the artisanal nature of the process, slight variations and minor imperfections may be present. These unique characteristics are a testament to the craftsmanship and individuality of your bag, adding to its story and charm.

 

Most bags are crafted from beautiful fabrics, and unless stated otherwise (like waterproof cordura or water-resistant materials), they’re much like your favourite clothes — they may stain or mark if not treated with care. A little love goes a long way in keeping your bag looking its best. Thank you for supporting handmade design!

Gift Wrapping
All bags come beautifully gift wrapped.

Care Instructions
Thank you for choosing a MeganGaea handmade bag! To ensure your bag stays in great condition, please follow these care guidelines:

Spot Clean Only: Use a damp, soft cloth with mild soap to gently clean any spots or marks. Avoid soaking the fabric to maintain the bag’s shape and integrity.
Avoid Machine Washing or Dry Cleaning: Machine washing or dry cleaning can damage the fabric and cause the bag to lose its structure.
Protect the Hardware: While the stainless steel hardware is durable and resistant to tarnish, you can wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth to maintain its polished appearance.
Keep Away from Excess Moisture: Prolonged exposure to water or high humidity may affect the bag's fabric or finishes.
Store Properly: When not in use, store your bag in a cool, dry place. Consider using a dust bag to protect it from dust and sunlight.
Avoid Overloading: To maintain the bag's shape, avoid overstuffing it with heavy or bulky items.
