Mulberry - The Brand

Designs such as the Alexa and Bayswater are two of the most lusted over bags of the past few years, and increasingly the go-to bag for first time designer buyers. Mulberry, with its quintessentially British charm has taken the fashion world by storm with its collection of exotic skins and high quality leather. The latest fashion starlet to cast her spin on the luxury brand is Emma Hill.

History

Created by mother and son duo – Joan and Roger Saul, the Somerset based company currently has stores across the world. Started in 1971, the original pieces focused on quilted fishing jackets and binocular bags, and quickly came to hone in on luxury styled handbags.

Style

It’s hard to steer away from the Alexa and Bayswater due to their sheer simplicity and elegance. The Bayswater with its clever structured shape and ladylike ambience which makes it ideal for the smarter lady, and the Alexa (named after miss Chung) for its relaxed street chic. We love the Polly Push Lock, if you’re after something a little bit less known. Its envelope satchel shape makes it extremely versatile, plus the extra shoulder strap means it’s practical too.

Perfect For

First time designer buyers. Not scary, or laced with too many bizarre details, Mulberry’s bags can be appreciated by women of any age, from the school teacher to the high-flying business woman
