Nancy Gonzalez

Known for her exquisitely crafted handbags and accessories in richly textured, rare leathers, designer Nancy Gonzalez draws inspiration from the natural features and culture of her native Colombia. In the mere decade since this mother of two made the decision to go into business for herself, Nancy Gonzalez has become a global brand, lauded by fashion editors, buyers, and consumers alike. She seeks to provoke an emotional relationship between her bags and their owners, and the care taken during the bags’ creation is matched only by the devotion cited by their owners. By incorporating unconventional shades and shapes that riff on classical and organic forms, her collection effortlessly telegraphs the qualities of the woman herself: joy, elegance, and strength.
