When Alyssa Black started making customised handbags for friends, little did she know they'd become such a large-scale success. Her accessories label, Caprice Bianca, is now booming - with stockists across the US and online. Her bags are made from rich metallic leathers, exotic skins and bright patents in gorgeous colours.
