 ...here is the winning bag! Designed by Liam R. Findlay of Dorset, England... Thank you, Liam, for coming up with a unique and amazing design in keeping with both Laga Handbags and Lady Gaga! We are very proud and look forward to giving this bag also to Lady Gaga herself!

UPDATE   UPDATE

An update from a huge Laga Handbags supporter and a fantastic designer Liam R. Findlay, he found a Lady Gaga fan that has an ARTPOP Zone Ticket for the artRAVE in Cleveland OH May 18, 2014. We will send her Liam's designer bag Lady Gaga mady by Laga as shown, she will be giving it to Lady Gaga, let's see what happens!

Laga handmade handbags are made in Aceh, Indonesia by women who survived the tsunami that took the lives of over 250,000.
Laga bags, travel bags and accessories are sewn on pedal driven, non-electric treadle machines with hand-guided embroidery patterns that are indigenous to this area and have been passed down through generations.  Each handbag is a unique piece of historical art.
Each handbag is lovingly stitched from nylon polyester fabric with cotton embroidery thread and lined with luxurious silk satin lining and has been given and Indonesian name to depict hope in the wake of the devastation: "Damai" (peace), "Sehat" (healthy), "Percaya" (believe)...
Each handbag sewn and sold brings hope for a better tomorrow.

Laga Handbags was started by Roy van Broekhuizen, whose family fled Indonesia when he was 9 years old, and wife, Louise, also of Indonesian decent. 
In Indonesia, Laga Handbags provides a place of peace, refuge and love for victims of disaster who are rebuilding their lives, one handbag at a time. 
Roy and Louise do not take a salary from Laga Handbags.

"We are dedicated to providing a secure future for as many victims of disaster as possible. With your help, we will achieve that goal. When you order a Laga handbag, know that you are helping create a better and brighter future, and that you can make a difference.

We formed Laga Designs International, Inc. to provide income for those
who lost their livelihood, but what transpired is much, much more:
we developed a personal relationship with the people of Aceh...
and we left our hearts in their homes."
