Jean Paul Gaultier: Leather Gargoyle Tote Bag, spring/summer 2001
leather studies 💀
I created this banner as a love letter to leatherdykes 🖤⛓️🩸
Handcrafted from a solid piece of leather, metal O-rings and chain, the banner is designed to embody the leather armour worn by these fierce guardians who strengthen and protect our communities.
