In this book about the contents of people’s bags, we wanted to be true to the personalities of the bag holders while maintaining the elegance and sophistication of the Kate Spade ethos. We did this by allowing participants to fill out a form that reveals their own personalities and bag-carrying habits in their own words and pen and including these forms in the back of the book. The book appeals to anyone who might be curious as to what people carry with them, including Kate Spade shoppers, voyeurs and cleptomaniacs.
