Mounissa Chodieva - The Bag Interview

The Founder of Vault Couture.

What does the bag you carry say about you?

I think the choice of a day bag very much reflects the lifestyle of a woman. I am always on the a go and I like to have my items with me at all times so I like large or oversized bags, preferably structured in shape, I don’t like any chains as it makes the bag heavier, I like the bag to have a wide opening so I can reach my things with ease and it has to have capacity to fit a lot.

How would you describe your personal style?

Elegant, chic, accessorised

What features are important to you when buying a bag?

It has to speak to me!

What do you tend to carry in your handbag?

Wallet, documents, iPad, scarf and my make up bag

What bag would you love to get as a special gift?

I want Cobas Chyc from YSL in tan colour, perfect travel companion for summer

Biography

The Founder of Vault Couture. Ever had a Carrie Bradshaw moment where your shoes are stored in your oven and your shower rail is an excuse for more hanging space? For many people, the trauma of having inadequate closet space for their treasured designer wardrobes is a severe dampener on their otherwise perfect city lifestyles. Vault Couture’s business model stems from personal need for a wardrobe management system being a collector of fashion and a businesswoman who travels frequently. In my opinion, Vault Couture is the most innovative, luxury service designed for those seeking the ultimate wardrobe-management solution. We also offer an online, boutique marketplace, ‘Vault Boutique’, which allows members to buy and sell pre-loved pieces from past collections. Perfect for those who don’t have the heart to throw out treasured pieces which they no longer need, as well as those longing to get their hands on past season’s must-haves.

I love my black 35cm Birkin, it is ancient but it fits my life! I also like YSL Cabas Chyc leather tote.

I like leather clutches in candy colours that do to match with any colour of my outfit but add a twist to the whole ensemble. Gonzales clutches are amazing but Jimmy Choo will do.

I also love the Hermes Mini Kelly in candy!
