The Tote Bag in Abyss by Aviva Jifei Xue is done in collaboration with Italian leathermaker Tagliovio, and is crafted from an Italian horse leather that has been naturally dyed for a natural look and one-of-one finish. The natural dyes enable the bag to patina beautifully with wear, adding a personal touch to the piece. Cut to a classic tote bag silhouette, the bag features 2 hand carry handles and an adjustable leather shoulder strap, while an inner cotton lining keeps your valuables protected. Finished off with a main hook and strap closure, a branded leather patch on the inside, and an inner zip pocket.

Please note: The natural dye treatment may cause colour transfer. It is recommended not to use dark coloured purses and bags with light-coloured garments.

Aviva Jifei Xue, a New York-based designer, launched her eponymous label in 2020, drawing deeply from her upbringing between Japan and China. A graduate of Parsons’ fashion design program in 2017, where she specialized in menswear, Xue’s work blends heritage with materiality. Natural fibres—hemp, wool, linen, and silk—are central to her collections, often naturally dyed and adorned with ceramic buttons as a nod to tradition. Her designs emphasize craft and old-world production techniques, utilising antique fabrics and custom-made textiles sourced from generational mills in Japan, resulting in pieces that celebrate timeless craftsmanship.
