When traveling to Paris, Laura Kim and Fernando Garcia – artistic director duo at the helm of Oscar de la Renta asked Elsa Sen to visit Saint-Ouen flea market for inspiration research. While looking for vintage jewelry, they found an old pave pear window decoration. It lead to a hardclutch design, which is an iconic evening bag carrying the playfulness and femininity famous to the brand. The pave multicolor version is a true evening minaudière while the version with casual sticker is a fun object to carry out for a lunch, both of them with an engraved brass leaf and an enameled flower.
