#NEW_COLLECTION: The Zodiac Collection by Missibaba

Brought to tears by the dazzling constellations dancing across the dome of the Buenos Aires Planetarium, Chloe and Lizel, the formidable force behind Missibaba, were inspired to create the Zodiac Collection. While they wouldn't make decisions based on magazine horoscopes, there is something about the mythical world of the planets or el firmamento (the heavens above) that has them entranced.

They kicked off the design process researching each star sign before allowing the organic creative journey to take flight, and once the leather cutting commenced the pieces began to unfold. Their favourite? “The Gemini. It has opened up a slightly more sensual route of exploration for us which we’re excited to reconnoitre further,” says Chloe.

The Delicious Monster tote in buttery soft charcoal forms the canvas for the individual star sign designs and as a background one of three glitter suede’s in Midnight, Gold or Deep Green has been used. The reverse central panel has been done in Midnight glitter suede to mirror the heavenly night sky.

Limited edition and entirely handmade, pieces from the Zodiac Collection are available for purchase from the Missibaba store in Birdhaven, Johannesburg.
