From November 27 to 29, Lacoste is bringing in one of France’s top gilder artisans to demonstrate the processes of gold foil application and leather gilding by appending the initials of shoppers onto their handbags or small leather goods. This gives shoppers the chance to personalise their items for gift-giving purposes.

Shoppers can make their way to the Lacoste stores in Central Square, Estancia Mall, and SM Megamall on November 27 to 29, respectively. The Manila stop is the last of a six-city tour for the French artisan, who has been to Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Hanoi, and Ho Chi Minh City for the same project.
