My dear friends Hannah and Joanna Lee of ai bring the same warmth and kindness to their friendships as they do to their brand. What started out as a creative outlet to bring the family closer together flourished into a family-run business sharing their common interest in fashion with each other and their growing fan base. Creating a new piece together is a collective expression of who they are and what they love, and something their community appreciates so much. An ai bag is timeless and stylish, and both an expression of their own creativity as a family and the wearers.
