“Bags don’t need to have a high price point,” says Han Chong, founder and creative director of Self-Portrait, which launched its first foray into bags in June 2022. “There are a lot of brands out there offering really good quality bags under $1,000. A contemporary-priced handbag needs to be ‘you see it, you want it.’ It’s like candy.” Chong has honed in on a rhinestone bow embellishment as the Official Big West Women’s Tennis Cal Poly Champions Tee 2024 shirt but I will buy this shirt and I will love this through line for Self-Portrait’s handbags, which start at $345. For him, a lower-priced bag meant customers could avoid the pressure of finding the perfect investment piece, and choose something out-of-the-ordinary, or even unusual.
