ThirdLove + BRIKA: Making of the Wash & Wear Bag + Special Giveaway

ThirdLove + BRIKA: Making of the Wash & Wear Bag + Special Giveaway

We’ve got a special treat for ThirdLove fans just in time for the holiday season: we teamed up with our friends at BRIKA & watercolor artist Shana Frase to create a chic wash & wear bag. One side for all your clean under-things and one side for your worn pieces. It makes staying organized while traveling a total breeze (did someone say ‘perfect gift’?).

ThirdLove + BRIKA Wash & Wear Lingerie Bag by Shana Frase

We sat down with BRIKA co-founder Kena Paranjape for a quick chat about how this adorable bag came to be...

How did the idea for the bag’s design come about?  
We've seen many lingerie bag sets on the market that included two separate bags - one for wearables and the other for washables. But we all know expert packing is all about efficiency! We wanted to design a bag that packs easily, makes getting dressed (and undressed) a breeze, and that is a beautiful piece you would easily give as a gift in addition to purchasing for yourself!
 
How did you end up choosing Shana as the artist for this piece?
Shana was one of the first artists to join BRIKA when we launched, so we got to know her personally. Her art is a true reflection of her - beautiful, romantic, bold yet very feminine. We knew that she would create an image that would complement the form and function of the wash/wear bag as well as Third Love as a brand.
 
How were the materials for the bag chosen?
We chose a linen/cotton fabric because it is natural, has a lovely texture and was a perfect canvas for Shana's gorgeous artwork.
 
Where is the bag made?
The bag was made in a locally owned factory here in Toronto, Canada.
 

Shana Frase, BRIKA Maker: “Everything’s made for love.”
When we think “pretty as a picture”, we think Shana Frase. From red ruby slippers to multi-colored macarons, every romantic image this talented painter produces is whimsical in concept & masterful in execution. We dare you not to be drawn in.
