This pouch was made for the speaker’s gift for the International Women’s Forum (IWF) Cornerstone Conference Helsinki 2023. Corban & Blair collaborated with the Social Outfit and First Nations artist Lucy Simpson to create this custom-made pouch.

The outside pouch artwork was designed by First Nations artist Lucy Simpson from Gaawaa Miyay Designs. The pouch features a leather patch with a gold foiled IWF logo and orange lining inspired by their logo colour. The pouch was made by The Social Outfit, a fashion and textile social enterprise based in Sydney. The zip and lining were also donated by the organisation.

The Social Outfit is a fashion and textiles social enterprise based in Sydney, Australia. The organisation provides employment and training opportunities to refugees and new migrants and uses surplus and donated fabrics from local fashion houses to create high-quality, sustainable fashion products.

Lucy Simpson is a contemporary First Nations artist and designer from the Yuwaalaraay community in North Western New South Wales, Australia. Her design for the conference gift is inspired by the rivers of her country. The result is a unique design that reflects the beauty and diversity of Indigenous art and culture.
