Cuffz Bags By Linz Designer Linz Shelton is a San Francisco-born California native currently living in Los Angeles. She has spent the last several years bouncing around London, Paris, Florence, and Milan - completing her education in English Literature and Theatre. She abandoned the jet-set lifestyle to settle into the Hollywood scene and develop her handbag line, CUFFZ by Linz, and to finish her Literature degree at UCLA. Linz transitioned from the costume community into the fashion world six years ago, and since then has experienced the industry through many lenses: as a stylist, as head buyer for several high-end boutiques in the San Francisco Bay Area, and most recently as designer and CEO of Cuffz Inc. Her designs continue to combine the flair of theatrical (and drag!) costume with rock n' roll sensibilities, steeped heavily in the DIY punk aesthetic, with wearable practicality and edgy innovation.
