Can I Tell You...about my feature on Asian American Life / CUNY TV
Rafe Totengco
There’s a saying that behind every successful woman is a fabulous handbag. Well, if that were true…I would hope that it’s a Rafe bag! And if it isn’t, perhaps after watching this segment from Asian American Life on CUNYT TV you’d be enticed to add one of my handbags to your wardrobe .
I was delighted to share my story about growing up in a small town in the Philippines and how fashion became a major influence in my childhood.
Almost every Rafe bag showcases my love for color, craft and detail whether it’s on a sequined clutch, a shell-inlay minaudiere or an embroidered straw clutch.
Thank you Ernabel Demillo for interviewing me on your show, Chiqui Cartagena for making it happen, Laura Fuchs for taking all the behind the scenes photos and Duane Ferguson for capturing this on film.
