Women’s Handbag Designer Needed -- 2

I’m developing a new line of women’s handbags and need a designer who can take the idea from concept to factory-ready tech packs. The focus is strictly on handbags; totes and clutches are not part of this brief. I want to experiment with leather, canvas and synthetic builds, so you’ll need a solid grasp of how each material behaves, the hardware that complements it, and the cost implications for small-batch production.

For the leather pieces I’m open to classic, minimalist and bohemian looks—essentially, three distinct moods that still feel like one collection. Your job is to help me balance those directions, refine silhouettes, and propose colour palettes and trim details that can carry across all materials.

Key deliverables:
• Initial concept sketches and mood boards
• Refined silhouettes with material call-outs
• Factory-ready tech packs (AI/CAD files, measurements, BOM, hardware specs)
• Guidance on sourcing and production considerations

Please share relevant portfolio samples of handbags you’ve taken to production, along with any experience you have coordinating with manufacturers. If you’re ready to create a cohesive, versatile range of women’s handbags, I look forward to working together.
