Chic Moderne Introduces Recycled Leather as Eco-Chic Fashion Accessories

Feb. 8, 2011 - PRLog -- San Francisco Bay Area, CA -- Patti Tang, founder and owner of the online store, Chic Moderne, knows how to transform leather scraps into one-of-a-kind, everyday-luxurious accessory items. Her products range from business card holders to briefcases, notebook covers, and now, new iPhone and iPad cases.

Sold on her website http://www.etsy.com/shop/chicmoderne, Chic Moderne’s accessories are available in styles called Venezia and Milano – and feature colors such as summer-poppy reds, buttercup yellows, and midnight blacks. Handcrafted by European artisans from scraps that were destined to be discarded from designer leather workshops in Italy, all recycled leather items pair sustainability with urban elegance. Made of lightweight, yet ultra-strong materials, Chic Moderne’s eco-chic accessories come in high quality and style, and with the genuine smell of leather.

Tang began producing her eco-friendly products with fellow fashionistas and businesswomen in mind. Her first products, which she launched in 2006, were wallets inspired by the designs showcased at European fashion houses. She soon added colorful notebooks, briefcases, and business card holders to her collection. Luxurious in texture and design, with pieces under $100, Chic Moderne’s accessories don’t come with an indulgent price tag.

Before starting Chic Moderne, Tang, a San Francisco Bay area resident who studied fashion merchandising, graduated from the Women’s Initiative, a program that assists high-potential, low-income entrepreneurs to start their own business.
