The Escape Bag

The have-to-have handbag

Australian design team, STATE OF ESCAPE has released the must-have handbag for summer 14/15 – the Escape Bag.

Already making a statement on the streets of New York, London and Sydney and the beaches of The Hamptons, the Escape Bag is both the ultimate travel accessory and ideal summer tote.

A clever marriage of neoprene with sailing rope, this is an oversized bag with form that meets function. Lightweight yet strong and durable, beautifully crafted and distinctive in style the Escape Bag can take its owner from the beach to the bar, from in-flight to the streets of foreign cities. The sailing rope allows the neoprene to maintain its beautiful softness whilst providing the support to fill it to capacity – the more you fill it the better it performs.

“Our vision was to create a truly unique, edgy and beautifully designed carryall” – STATE OF ESCAPE Co-founders Brigitte MacGowan and Desley Maidment.

Since launching in May 2014 the Escape Bag has quickly been picked up by leading Australian retailers and a handful of exclusive east coast boutiques. It’s a bag that is as comfortable on the streets of the CBD as it is at the beach.

Available in six distinctive colour ways, black, soft grey, pewter, navy, bright yellow and hot coral, the Escape Bag is the must-have accessory for fashion conscious travellers, honeymooners, resort dwellers, market shoppers, gym-goers and parents. RRP: $299.
