Definitions

  • This invention is directed to the field of apparel and, more particularly to handbag customization via removable and/or interchangeable components such as patches and other articles.
  • handbags have a set style and look determined by the designer and manufacturer and are not customizable by a user. Bag customization is currently limited to the choice of straps, addition of accessories such as key fobs and tassels, and, in some cases, a covering that slips over an entire handbag so as to, for example, change the color or material comprising an external surface of the handbag. These limitations inhibit a user's options for self-expression via her handbag as well as her options for modifying the handbag to suit a need or desired style.

  • the interchangeable components provide a user with options for decoratively, functionally, and/or expressively modifying a portion of an exterior surface of a handbag so that a user may, for example, communicate her/his interests or personality traits to others who view the handbag and interchangeable component.
  • a handbag may be a bag intended to be held in the hand and/or include a strap to be placed over a shoulder and may also be referred to, for example, a purse, clutch, tote, backpack, satchel, messenger bag (cross-body), or pocketbook.
  • the interchangeable components disclosed herein may come in different shapes and sizes and may be attached to a dedicated portion of the handbag via an attachment mechanism like a zipper, button, snap, magnet, any form of rings or hooks, fasteners of any kind, VELCRO, or the like. Often times, the attachment mechanism has two parts: one coupled to the handbag and one coupled to the interchangeable component.
  • an interchangeable component and/or handbag may include two or more second and first portions of attachment mechanisms, respectively.

  • Interchangeable components may be made from the same material as a handbag or made of a different material, color or finish. After being attached to the handbag, the interchangeable components may look like pockets of different sizes (free or unattached from the top side) and/or may be completely closed from all sides by a zipper or other attachment mechanism. In some instances, an interchangeable component may form a pocket, flap, or fold over component when coupled to the handbag.
  • the interchangeable component may, or may not, bear artwork, embellishment, or other design elements or motifs including, or not limited to, embroidered, painted, printed, drawn, embossed, engraved, sewn or glued on designs or pieces and may be made of different fabrics and materials and have various colors.

  • Utilization of the present invention allows consumers to express their personalities and interests via selection and attachment of a particular interchangeable component to a handbag that they think will demonstrate some of their traits, interests or moods. Additionally, or alternatively, users may also experiment with interchangeable components of materials (fur, different kinds and colors of leather or canvas) and color combinations to realize their visions of what their ideal handbag may look like. Utilization of the invention may further enable individuals other than the user to purchase or otherwise provide interchangeable components that reflect how they feel about the user. For example, parents can choose to give their avid reader and adventurous daughter a bag in her favorite color with the words "Bookworm” and "Adventurous" on the interchangeable components, which can be replaced by other patches later on.
  • the interchangeable components disclosed herein do not totally replace an exterior surface, or outer shell, of a handbag to totally transform its appearance, but rather provide for the personalization of bags with the attachment of various components thereto that alter some aspects of the appearance and/or function of the handbag.
