The Adelle Sling Bag

The Adelle Portrait Sling Bag

Make a statement with the Adelle Sling Bag, a wearable tribute that blends high-fashion utility with deep cultural storytelling.

Featuring one of Lillian Gray’s most elegant and sophisticated portraits, this bag is a celebration of life, color, and heritage. The “Adelle” portrait is rendered in a refined palette of various pink shades, subtle blue highlights, and warm yellow ochre, ensuring that your appreciation for fine art is visible from a mile away.

The Heart of the Artwork: Adelle

The name Adelle originates from German, meaning “Noble” or “Nobility.” This piece is more than a fashion choice; it is a reflection of quiet grace and dignified beauty. By carrying this bag, you carry the spirit of timeless elegance and the sophisticated presence that Lillian Gray’s portraiture represents.

Handcrafted Detail & Heritage

What makes each Adelle bag truly special is the surprise waiting inside. No two bags are identical.

• The Shweshwe Secret: Each bag is lined with authentic Shweshwe material. Known as the “denim of South Africa,” this traditional fabric adds a layer of cultural history to the piece.

• One-of-a-Kind: Because we use different Shweshwe prints for every lining, your bag features its own unique interior pattern—a private piece of art just for you.
