Letme tell you about Shaneka.
She is designer of bag label d'Nimo, just introduced at Dutch Leather Design.
This is what Shaneka told Ines of Dutch Leather Design:
First of all I love the fact that I have total design control and spare no mercy for the practical bag,they're everywhere. d'NĂMO is all about style first! There's a part of me along with a theme in every bag and I name each one after someone in my life. I feel that each bag radiates on its own even though they are a part of the same collection. The goal, which I feel I've managed to achieve was actually not being afraid to play with shapes and asymmetry but still end up with something that is wearable and attractive. I guess you can call it thinking outside the box, but in my world...there was never a box!
It was important to choose a soft,supple leather because I like to work with pleating, pinching and gathering detailing which you notice now and would again in my future collections.
My bags have character, they show that I had both fun and a bold energy while creating them. I took advantage of the fact that I could do what I want...why? because I simply can.
