Enid's Resting place
Being a vintage nut, I can never walk past an Enid Collins piece. Handbags were her world. Enid Collins—born and raised in Texas—became a beloved designer throughout the 1940s, ’50s and ’60s. Her creations, dreamed up on a hand-hewn kitchen table in a remote ranch, grew into a phenomenon that reached every major department store in America, from Neiman Marcus to Saks Fifth Avenue and Lord & Taylor. Today, her handbags are collected across the globe, and treasured for their playful adornments. Highly popular in the 1960s—and they continue to inspire designers and big-name brands to this day. I’ve borrowed one of her classic daisy symbols for this piece, weaving it through my own Articat lens with a curving nouveau cat tail—1950s charm meets Art Nouveau swirl meets Articat Studios.
