So long teenage years; MIMCO isn’t the only one celebrating their 20th Birthday in 2016. Not only does New Zealand blogger Nicole Ku turn 20, she also happens to have some seriously covetable style.
We first became obsessed with Nicole’s moody Instagram feed after she created a stop-motion film with some of our accessories – from there it’s been a love affair of all things sculptural and slightly androgynous.
The fashion blogger recently took our State of Flux Bag (the winning design from the #mimcodesignproject) and Birthday Button Bag for a spin – the result was '90s grunge meets '70s glamour paired in perfect style harmony.
"Luxurious leather, all-black, iconic button detail and the round handles everyone's been talking about. Swing the State of Flux Bag over your shoulder with the long strap or clutch it in hand by the aforementioned top handles. For all the adventurers, study bees and hustlers of the world…style it as a backpack."
"Just a bit of an upsize from The State of Flux, MIMCO’s Birthday Button Bag is a roomy, ‘throw anything in there' kind of bag. Passport in the front, everything else in the back - it's all you need for a trip across the ditch. With its soft geometric shapes, you can't go wrong when you match its boldness with some denim.” (or a whole lot more black-on-black.)
"From work, to travel, to party (of course) - Happy 20th birthday, MIMCO! Thank you for your constant inspiration. Cheers to many more years, and a million more iconic bags and accessories to come.”
