Sang A Bags

June 19th, 2008 / Posted in Introducing... by Megs Mahoney Dusil.

Earlier this week I brought you the Sang A River Square Tote, which has become a staple for this flourishing young designer. Sang A is worth talking about and worth the slow growing hype. The Korean-born Sang A did not start out as a designer, though her track in life has been anything but ordinary. Sang A was a popular stage/television actress and singer and release three pop music albums on a major label by age 26. Talk about accomplished. But one of her true loves and passions came from costumes, colors, and styling of her stage outfits, which ultimately lead her to take on design and move to New York City. Her accessories were launched in the Spring of 2006 and since the launch her popularity has shifted from being known as a singer to being known as a designer. Sang A focuses on the art of luxury; using exotic skins that are meticulously treated. The style lines are clean and leave an impression. When speaking about her designs Sang A states, “My design exudes the essence of modern classic with a dose of avant garde”. Below are four of my favorite handbags from the Fall/Winter 08 line from Sang A. The colors stand alone, the skins are extravagant, and the designs are the perfect touch of modern. Find more information on the designer at Sang A online. To order call 212-564-4433 or email store@sanga.com . Also, Vivre sells Sang A and has a great selection!

    It’s strange how I keep reading here that she was a singer/actress, yet I have never heard of her and I am Korean… In any case, the ostrich clutch is gorgeouss!

    Maybe you’re too young to have seen her or heard of her, Ana? :smile: I don’t think she was ever hugely popular. I remember her being a mediocre actress. Who would have known that she’d be making handbags now?? Not only is she designing expensive bags but she also looks gorgeous. What a change!

    I´m not so keen on these bags. I don´t like the boxiness of the totes and I think that the great alligator bag is spoiled by the hardware stuff and the zipper, including the shape ( the whole bag is out of proportions ). The clutches are bad too, can´t understand the yellow one-ponyhair-where? I just don´t think the design on these does justice to the material used.

    I love these bags, and the quality is exquisite. I have the Sang A River tote in python, which always receives rave reviews when i carry it.

    The first bag has an interesting texture, but there’s no way you couldn’t get something similar to all of these bags for a fraction of the price. I’d pay that in Hermes or Chanel, but not for these.

    Frankly, this is my first time knowing Sang A. Well, I must say she have a great collection overall. Even so, what’s with the exorbitant prices? Perhaps, she could have started out with something more simple and not go avant-garde out of nowhere. ;)

    Obviously she is a designer and using high-grade exotics, hence the price.

    I wouldn’t say this is a non-branded bag collection.
