Next up on our list of industry insider bags, we’re going inside the 3-in-1 Céline stunner belonging to the Tehran-born, Toronto-based jewellery designer, Maryam Keyhani. Anyone who knows Keyhani knows that her superbly artsy personal style comes part and parcel with her superbly artsy designs. She’s rarely seen without a top hat or some sort of trompe l’oeil. The contents of her bag reflect this sense of style, as well as how awesome she is in general.

The Kelly, the PS1, the Speedy: It bags have become so major over the years, that they scarcely even need a designer name attached! We discuss the appeal at length in our Winter 2012 issue, but today, we’re putting these bags to the test: in the battle of It bag supremacy, which comes out on top?

What was your first job at J.Crew?
“I started 20 years ago. I was an assistant to an assistant.”
Are you bringing back company loyalty?
[Laughs] “I never in a million years dreamed that I would be at the same [place]. I spend more time at my job than I do with my family, so my job does feel like a family.”
What’s your secret to becoming a fashion powerhouse? What advice would you give to someone starting out?
“Love what you do. The people who I see as successful [are those who] stay in the moment and try and do the best they can. Those are the people you want to promote. They’re the ones who are thinking about new ideas and trying to do their job better.”

Akris shot by Richard Bord/Getty Images
Paris Fashion Week is a fairytale, though my battered and blistered feet might indicate otherwise. From the characters to the costumes to the sets, every sunrise here marks the beginning of another magical chapter. So, it wasn’t all that surprising when a bona fide Princess (Charlene Wittstock, Prince Albert of Monaco’s new bride) walked into the Akris show and perched front row. I was seated two rows behind which proved to be an excellent vantage point to study her sizeable diamond stud earrings. My final analysis? They were the Goldilocks of gemstones–not too big, not too small. She is a big fan of Akris, and even had an outfit designed for her wedding day (not THE dress, but a dress) so her ties with this company are firmly rooted. Perhaps this connection explains Akris’s throw to Monaco’s Grand Prix Formula 1 in its spring line-up: racing green, sporty stripes, race car prints. Even the show’s soundtrack included engines revving.

Michael Kors on celebrating his 30th anniversary, staying plugged in and becoming an adjective.
All-American. Spirited. Jetsetter. You can spot Michael Kors from a mile away. Over the course of his 30 years in the fashion industry, the man and the brand have become one and the same, morphing into a mega-empire that, as rumour has it, hit a billion dollars in sales this year. Not bad for a boy from Long Island, New York. Adored by Hollywood A-listers like Gwyneth Paltrow and Jennifer Lopez, soccer moms and First Ladies alike (Michelle Obama wore Kors for her first official White House portrait), his rise to fashion royalty took off in 1981, when he launched his eponymous womenswear line.
