First Kiss Bag — Design & Functional Art Overview

Custom. Made-to-order in New York. 6 months

The First Kiss bag, the original handbag designed by Liselle Kiss, discovered by British Vogue, is created to transition seamlessly from work to dinner to play. This versatility is made possible through a compact design with a four-way removable gold brass chain, which allows the bag to be styled as a shoulder bag, crossbody, clutch, or elbow carry. This allows the wearer to shift the bag’s aesthetic depending on occasion and personal style.

Issuance Designation

Each First Kiss handbag is recorded as part of a documented art series.

Scalloped Tile Inspiration

The curved top edge of the First Kiss is inspired by the Spanish rooftop tiles of Liselle Kiss’ hometown of Miami, reminding of the resilience and beauty of the tile that can withstand hurricane winds,  giving the silhouette a soft, yet beautiful architectural rhythm that plays an ode to the woman’s beauty and resilience.

The Petal Motif

Two sculpted front pockets form Liselle Kiss’ signature petal motif. Together, they represent balance, peace, and comfort—designed to feel grounding and intentional for the woman who wears it.

A removable, signature leather tassel is included to mark this piece as a Liselle Kiss heirloom design.
