Meet Barcelona based atelier, Vocco. Masters of luxury luggage and travel bags.
With the world opening up again and people are beginning to travel again for city breaks or far away beach holidays. The luggage we choose to use is so important to guarantee it giving you the most room to store your precious belongings and also refraining from damage when coming around the luggage carousel at the airport.
Many mainstream luggage brands do not create products of such a luxury quality whilst creating a good working environment for their staff and being sustainable.
Vocco Atelier will be your new best friend when travelling. The luxury travel brand create beautifully minimalistic weekend bags, beach bags, travel bum bags and luggage.
We spoke to Elena one of the co-founders of Vocco Atelier to discuss why they saw a good gap in the market for luxury travel bags with a sustainable backstory.
We are a couple that loves traveling. We do it as much as we can and we always carry with us weekender bags. It’s Friday afternoon, we put some basics in, we put our bags on the trunk and hit the road. We love road trips through the countryside and see how the seasons changes the colors of the fields. We often go to Costa Brava to discover new corners and drive through dusty roads. Many times those small trips have surprises like this beautiful sunflower field we encountered in one of our first photo shootings (https://www.voccoatelier.com/blogs/journal/capture-the-sunlight)Our designs are inspired by these fields, these colors and of course the natural fabrics that match perfectly with the Mediterranean countryside in Spain, France, Italy, Greece, Turkey or Morocco. We also enjoy studying that shared common history we have through our connection with the Mediterranean Sea.
We wanted to create the perfect bag to carry all our essentials for a Weekend Getaway. We designed the Weekender Bag that we wanted for us. It had to be ethically handmade with premium materials and using a sustainable manufacture process to minimize waste and reduce over-production. At the same time it also had to be functional, strong, elegant and timeless so that you could wear them forever. We use lots of neutral colors so that you can match them with any outfit. They have a minimalistic touch and refined details. Natural linen is the main fabric we use to create our bags. Using linen is also linked to our history, it was widely used in Ancient Egypt and Europe before the cotton came from the new world. We also make other type of bags such as beach bags, belt bags, toiletry bags and backpacks, all you need to enjoy your travels.
Well, we definitely had ups and downs during this pandemic. We noticed itspecially on the summer of 2021 but then again the pandemic got worst again. Now is finally getting better, even though we have this terrible war in Ukraine. But still people love to travel, and fortunately we are now meeting again with friends and family and our travel bags are perfect for those short trips.
Running our own business has many difficulties and tons of hard work, it is definitely not always easy. But themain thing you have and the reason why it is worth it is Freedom. Freedom to design and do exactly what you believe in and do it the way you want to do it. In our case is using high quality natural fabrics and working from a sustainable perspective.

We aim to make really wearable bags that could match with any outfit and that´s why we like to use lots of neutral colors. We also like to keep it stylish and simple at the same. For us details are very important. We want to create something unique and special that you can wear forever. Handcrafted bags which you cannot find in Fast Fashion. New types of bags are going to come out very soon!
We have a very meticulous production process and always make them in small quantities to keep the process the most sustainable we can. We are very conscious about taking care of the planet and we try to improve that every day. We want to create a new kind of Luxury- a Sustainable Luxury, that focuses on craftsmanship and were quality is as important as reducing the planet waste. We want to slow fashion down and create styles that can endure, which will help with our goal in reducing waste and over-production. It´s also very important for us that they are ethically handmade and that´s why we design and make all of our bags in Barcelona and we pay a fair wage to all our craftsman.

It´s summer in the Mediterranean coast! Nature is blooming! The sun is up as high as it goes.
Jump into your shoes and discover new places. This beautiful July sunlight will follow you wherever you go.
We wanted to share with you the beautiful fields of sunflowers we came across while heading back home this afternoon. We had to stop and take some pics with our Vocco Weekender Bag. Light was so perfect. Lovely place to disconnect from everything. It made you daydream. We felt like Alice in Wonderland.
