BERLIN, 5 December 2006 - Traveling around the world, you can find great mainstream fashion just about everywhere. But you often find the most interesting things out on the edge.
Traveling to Berlin with photographer David LaChapelle, I came across Aehrenkranz, a maker of really unique handbags, caps and shoes. The line is designed by Wahl-Berliner Annette Becker. Ms. Becker says, ‘everything I design is practical.’ Her vision of style with function is very German and yet somehow transcends that.
Aehrenkranz bags are wallets that you wear on your wrist. They are great for clubbing because you can hold everything you need without carrying a handbag or stuffing your pockets.
