Wine Design
Friday, December 01, 2006
(NEW YORK) The Ecco Domani Fashion Foundation has enlisted an esteemed group of its past winners, including Kai Kühne, Palmer Jones, Mary Ping, and Project Alabama to create unique, one-of-a-kind wine bottle bags made to carry one or two bottles of wine. The first-ever bottle bag collection ranges in price from $10 to $85, and is available at www.eccodomani.com. Kühne, a 2002 EDFF award recipient along with former design collective AsFour, created a black wine purse with a jumbo-sized bow; Kathy and Lindy Jones of Palmer Jones, 2003 EDFF award recipients, created a blue over-the-shoulder synthetic fabric Ecco logo bag that can keep a bottle of chilled white wine cool and protected during transit; Project Alabama, also 2003 EDFF award recipient, created a burgundy, quilted, cylinder-shaped, leather trim strap bag that can also be used as a fashionable over-the-shoulder bag; and Ping, a 2005 EDFF award recipient, fashioned her wine sack-which can double as a wristlet-out of suede and patent leather.JIM SHI
