A LITTLE TIME WITH... BARBARA BONER

Barbara Boner is a bag designer born in Italy but resident in London.
She is a very nice person and she has answered a few question for THE GLASHION as we were interested to know more about her life and her work.

Have you always wanted to be a designer?
I ALWAYS LOVED FASHION BUT IT TOOKED MY A LITTLE WHILE TO ALLOWED MYSELF TO BE A DESIGNER.

What did you do before being a designer?

I WAS, LIKE I'M STILL ARE, A LIFE STUDENT.

Which work or educational experience impressed you most?
TRAVELLING AROUND THE WORLD AT A REALLY EARLY AGE AND THE CENTRAL SAINT MARTIN CORRIDORS CREATED THE PERSON I 'M NOW .


Why did you choose to live and work in London?
IN LONDON I FOUND BOTH LOVE AND LOVE FOR FREEDOM

Are there places or people that inspire your creations?

OUR BIG HOME,THE UNIVERSE, INSPIRE ME, I'M ATTRACTED BY TOWNS AND NATURE AT THE SAME TIME.

I'M IN LOVE WITH THE WOMAN NATURE AND I FIND EVERY SINGLE DAYS SOME ICONIC CREATURES WHO GUIDE AND INSPIRE ME.

How important is comfort?

COMFORT IS IMPORTANT WHEN YOU DESIGN BAGS OF COURSE!

I DO MAKE FUNKY BAGS NOT DAILY ONES, SO IS A CHALLENGING FOR ME TRY TO CONCEIVE THEM ALSO COMFORTABLE AND NOT JUST PRETTY.

You have to wear a bag of another designer. Who do you choose?

I DID START DESIGNING BAGS BECAUSE I WAS NOT FINDING THE RIGHT ONE TO WEAR MYSELF , I DO LIKE QUALITY BUT I'M NOT A BIG FAN OF LOGOS ,BUT I DO LOVE GIVENCHY ACCESSORIES, THEY DID VERY BEAUTIFUL BAGS IN THE LAST FEW YEARS.
