Self-Portrait Debuts Accessories Collection With Pastel Bags Ft. Sparkly Gold & Silver Bows
Decidedly feminine with a touch of timeless elegance, Self-Portrait is a London-based fashion brand that’s a hot favourite among celebrities. Chances are, you’ve seen their beautifully sculpted and often lace-covered dresses on personalities like Beyonce, Kristen Stewart, Blackpink, as well as bloggers Chiara Ferragni and Aimee Song.

Best known for their intricate Azaelea dresses, which come in a variety of bold and neutral hues, the label has now unveiled its first accessories collection centered on the new Bow Bag.

The debut of two styles, the Bow Mini and the Bow Micro, is accompanied by a fitting ‘90s-inspired campaign starring British supermodel Naomi Campbell.

Lensed by photographer Renell Medrano, the visuals pay homage to the R&B classic “The Boy Is Mine” by Brandy and Monica, with Campbell telling somebody on the phone that the Bow bag is hers and only hers.

Both Bow Bag designs come in a shopper style silhouette, with the body and double handles crafted from soft Nappa leather and lined with a single visible stitch. The centerpiece is a metal bow in either hammered gold or silver, that’s solid but appears to flow like real ribbons.

Said to emulate the strength in femininity, the bag’s embellished bows—inspired by François Kramer’s “Bow Brooch” created for Empress Eugenie of France, come crusted in crystals for an added sparkle. Both the Bow Mini and Bow Micro are big enough to hold all your absolute essentials, with a detachable shoulder strap and a magnetic flap closure.

Shoppers will be spoilt for choice by stunning colourways including pastels like pistachio green, blush pink, caramel, and baby blue, alongside the classic white and black. The pastel-hued bags look especially beautiful when contrasted with the sparkly bows.

Self-Portrait’s founder and creative director Han Chong says: “The Bow Bag’s shape – strong yet feminine – is a timeless design with a happy uplifting twist, which we’ll continue to work with for years to come.”
