ARTISAN HANDBAG
Monday, March 23rd, 2009
DVF with Phelicia and the Femmes en Democratie women at the Vital Voices Global Leadership Awards
In another celebration of International Women’s Day, DVF partnered with the Vital Voices Global Network for an Artisan Design Competition. This competition challenged women from Haiti, Guatemala, Nigeria and Cambodia to design an original handbag reflective of the local traditions of their home country.
The winner is Phelicia Dell from Haiti. Her unique design is inspired by Ayizam, the Haitian goddess of marketplace and commerce. The bags are hand-painted in vibrant colors by the women of the Femmes en Democratie network. Phelicia’s winning design is now available in Orange and Natural at DVF boutiques and online. Proceeds benefit Vital Voices.

Be the Wonder Woman You Can Be!
The Wonder Woman phenomenon continues. Since launching Be the Wonder Woman You Can Be in October, the limited edition comic book and Wonder Woman-inspired collection has been celebrated all over the world, from New York to Paris to Belgium.
Most recently, the book’s message of empowering women and giving back gets a major “wow” from columnist Liz Smith on her website wowOwow. Check out what Liz has to say about Wonder Woman and take some time to surf her site.
