Argentine designer Michelle Mugrabi is a talented young artist who, at the early age of sixteen, knew what her passion was, to be a fashion designer.
Since that moment, she has never stopped learning and is always finding new ways to express her ideas by designing pieces that really stand out from the crowd.
After finishing her studies in 2018 at the University of Buenos Aires and gaining solid experience working for various fashion companies, we can say that she definitely made it by creating a unique product with her own stamp of individuality.
Michelle's handbags, fanny packs and clutches are not just functional accessories, they are portable sculptures, which combine the worlds of art and design. These are the type of statement pieces that immediately catch your eye and intrigue you with their unexpected shapes and materials.
Her artwork is inspired by nature and everything that coexists within it. After an extensive design process and exploring different combinations of materials to see how they work together, the final result is these unique and amazing bags made from acrylic, leather and, on some occasions, metals, wood and wool. Every part is carefully handmade by different artisans.
Recently she has also included a new item in her collection that we love, merino wool sweaters. These pieces are not only special because of their premium quality and design, but also because of the two-needle technique she uses. This is a very intricate and lengthy knitting technique that adds value to the piece. The most iconic sweater from her small and well curated collection is entitled "Metal" and features metal and leather embellishments. A real statement piece.
Michelle Mugrabi is definitely one of our favorite designers of the moment, because of her fresh ideas and enthusiasm, and we're really looking forward to seeing her career grow. As she said to Shop Hop BA in this interview, "This is just the beginning".
