Melissa began designing the Opera Bag in January 2022 as a classic, lightweight work bag. Its hemispherical top shape is inspired by the ‘stupa’—a prominent feature of Java’s ancient Candi architecture. After exploring countless forms and cutting patterns, she eventually arrived at a proportion that beautifully complements her vibrant, day-to-day lifestyle. The Opera stands today as the pinnacle of her joyful bag-making journey.
She named it ‘Opera’ because the bag’s dual-sided exterior evokes a theatrical stage. The rounded top, finished with double zips, creates a graceful silhouette while offering a wide, practical opening for easy access. Inside, generous compartments and pockets are ideally suited for a mobile phone, A4 folders, or a laptop between eleven and sixteen inches. The bag also includes a loop designed to fit the separately sold Bien Strap, allowing it to be styled as a handbag, shoulder bag, or crossbody. Two additional loops on the short handles provide handy spots for attaching a keyring, bag charm, or extra pouch.
The illustrations featured on the Originals Opera Bag form part of a broader visual narrative from Melissa Sunjaya’s “Made in Java” collection.
