Description
The Doctor W is a compact yet distinctive bag, balancing sculptural elegance with everyday practicality. Crafted from vegetable-tanned horse leather, it reveals a deep, natural character that will evolve beautifully over time, developing a unique patina with wear.
Designed to be carried by hand or worn crossbody, this updated version features a wider shoulder strap for enhanced comfort and presence. The strap is slightly adjustable through the hand-forged iron hooks and two holes, maintaining the bag’s raw, artisanal aesthetic.
The interior is fully lined in 100% linen and includes both a zipped pocket and an open leather pocket for effortless organization. The signature hand-forged wrought iron hook closure adds a tactile, sculptural detail that defines the piece.
Part of the Autumn–Winter 2025–26 “Ultra Renaissance” collection, the Doctor W reflects Tagliovivo’s dialogue between tradition and experimentation. Entirely handmade, each bag carries subtle variations that make it a truly one-of-a-kind object, shaped to last a lifetime.

Care
One of the unique qualities of vegetable-tanned leather is the beautiful patina it develops over time, so you can enjoy using your bag without hesitation. However, keep in mind that this leather is not water-resistant. If it comes into contact with water, dry it immediately by gently and evenly absorbing the moisture. Avoid applying care products directly to water stains, as they may make the marks more visible.
For regular cleaning, we recommend using a soft cotton cloth with glycerin soap, applying it evenly across the entire surface. This will help nourish the leather and extend its lifespan.
Variations in color, shading, and texture are natural characteristics of vegetable-tanned leather and reflect its authenticity and quality. Over time, signs of aging — such as scratches, patina, or small stains — are not flaws but rather features that enhance the unique character of your bag.
