Interview with Designer Christopher Kon


Christopher Kon was only 23 years old
when he started his hand by collection
called colab hi welcome to watchmojo.com
I’m your host Ashley and today we had
the privilege to speak with him about
his career in his collection i buy that
you said you have a natural talent for
designing handbags why do you think that
is well I grew up in the business my
father was a producer so I grew up
making bags that’s what I did as a kid
my friends were like playing with their
skateboards and stuff which I can only
do on the weekends like at night after
school and stuff I go and help my dad
out just making bags and this I just had
my guess a knack for it I mean I was
very artistic from very young I started
like drawing when I was three or four
like because I enjoyed it it wasn’t just
nothing to do on the weekends or at a
restaurant working with my dad all the
time I was like constantly around bags
I’m always had bags so I just started
drawing head thanks I’ve noticed that
they’re pretty large bags we always do a
big bags I think the bigger the bag the
better it falls the more dramatic it is
the accessory is supposed to be
something that enhances your appearance
like the clothing the fit is very
important the handbag the proportions
are very important to your taller so you
can wear a large bag there’s nothing
more beautiful than a girl walking down
the street with this like incredible
large bag on her arm it’s she it can be
also playful because you know she’s
running she’s got the bag in her hand
like it’s also a way to draw people’s
attention to it the smaller the bag it
sort of gets lost sometimes when you put
a big bag on a table everyone turns
around or wants to see what you’re
carrying why did you choose the label
colab kolob was going to be pull up a
