Carry a Mischa Tote from Jean Brown, Fortitude Valley

Inspired by traditional kimono sashes – the Japanese obi – the Mischa Jet Set Tote is a unique travelling and shopping carry-all.

The Mischa Jet Set Tote is the newest addition to designer Michelle Lai’s namesake label, known for its luxe range of one-of-a-kind bags and accessories handcrafted from reclaimed vintage Japanese obi and kimono.

The signature print on this Mischa tote is an expression of Michelle’s aesthetic aspirations and passion for vintage finds. The bag is covered in interlocking hexagons – a stylised representation of the sea tortoise’s shell, symbolising longevity.

The Mischa Jet Set Tote features the brand’s iconic print, hand-stitched leather straps and trim representing traditional Japanese elements. Made from light cotton canvas covered with weatherproof coating, this tote is available at Jean Brown at Emporium.
