Bag it!
Designed by former Paris fashion editor Ariane Dutzi, the DUTZI RESCUE BAGS are handcrafted by a Mexican community of 20 Mayan women, ages 17 to 70. All proceeds from the burlap and raffia totes go back to the Yucatán-based workshop and to the women who work there. Dutzi says she hopes the workshop will encourage financial independence and freedom by creating jobs and enabling the women to provide for their families. dutzidesign.com —A.F.
