Be Inthavong’s artisanal bags—crafted by hand in New York using an exclusive silk and leather weave produced in his native Laos—are already just about as close to made-to-measure as it gets, but this fall the designer is formally rolling out a bespoke option for loyal fans. Clients can customize their handbag with new weaves and special trims, including hand-cut and -dyed lizard in an array of vibrant shades (Vong tote in lizard, $4,750).
