Roh Pays Tribute to Egyptian Artistry With Woven Leather Collection

Long lost amidst miniature and shoulder bag fades, the all encompassing nature of slouchy leather bags, and weaved basket totes are swifty trickling back into circulation. Labels such as Mansur Gavriel, Demellier, Cult Gaia, Khaite and Off-white, have been spotted retiring the structured silhouettes and opting for cushion-like and minimalist leather staples instead. With enough room for both your tangible and emotional baggage, Egyptian label Roh’s take on the beloved design pays tribute to the functional future of the trend whilst also embracing the tireless craftsmanship that goes into producing them.

"Roh was founded with the intention of showcasing the incredible technical capabilities of Egyptian women in the creation of practical yet trendy handbags,” founder Yasmine Ismail tells @SceneStyled. “We take pride in showcasing the liveliness and versatility of leather, constantly tap into feminine energy and to create unique and beautiful pieces that speak to the soul.”

The pillars Roh upholds as a brand are made all the more apparent when presented alongside the pieces they produce. Whilst certain pieces still display heavily embroidered and firm structures, the colorful shoulder and top-handle leather totes lean into the deific energy underscoring Roh’s brand philosophy.
