Sonique Saturday Leads Stylish Rebellion with Saturday House
Rocking designer dupes has set TikTok abuzz, fueled by the surge in influencer reviews. This sizzling trend has ignited a fashion-forward debate: Is it a clever shortcut to style, or a resounding fashion No-No? Amidst this discourse, enters Sonique Saturday, a trailblazer pushing boundaries with her luxurious handbag collection. Have you spotted Saturday House? The brand brought to life the iconic You Fake Like This Birkin bag, that has graced the arms of Tabitha Brown, Yung Miami, Niecy Nash, Amber Rose, and Christina Milian.
Meet the CEO of Saturday House, Sonique Saturday. Picture a broke college student with a passion for luxury fashion who is unwilling to wait for a corporate job to flaunt luxury items. Instead of waiting to be able to afford the luxury items she desired, she carved a new affordable path instead. Her handbag line mirrors the aesthetics of fashion labels, making quality and style attainable without breaking the bank. Say what you want about designer dupes Saturday House is giving quality. Enter Saturday House, a striking reimagination of luxury possession and the American dream. "We’re fed the 'American Dream' from birth– so seeking something adjacent to it felt familiar" Sonique candidly shared with 247 LC.
Of course, where brilliance sparks, challenges follow. Saturday House's iconic dupe designs have placed Sonique into a whirlwind of obstacles that most entrepreneurs couldn’t even dream of. Imagine receiving legal threats from fashion titans and rejection by tech giants like Google and Facebook for projecting a 'powerful image'. But in the face of adversity, Sonnique's fire only burned brighter.
“I suddenly realized I needed lawyers! Throughout the process, I aimed to uphold the values of originality and creativity while respecting the established legal boundaries within the fashion industry.”

Interestingly enough, Sonique didn't intend to birth a business at first. Initially, she just wanted a bag that echoed her style, designer dupe or not! Years of flaunting her custom designs unveiled a startling revelation: the world desired what she created. Staying true to herself birthed a unique black-owned luxury brand. Every Saturday House piece is a masterpiece, hand-painted and custom-crafted, a rarity in the handbag world. And those quotes? They're conversation starters, guaranteed to seize attention.
“I envisioned creating a piece that women could build their entire look around. I aimed to create conversation starters, something that made people stop and pay attention.”
Guess what? That's precisely what these bags do. So, when your eyes lock onto a bag proclaiming You Fake Like This Chanel, Just Don’t Touch My Hair, or I Don’t Cook, recognize it's from Saturday House – the audacious black-owned luxury handbag brand that shattered every fashion boundary in its path.
