While an accessories editor at Mademoiselle Magazine, Kate Noel Brosnahan noticed a void in the handbag market & decided she’d fill it. In 1993, with the help of then-boyfriend, now-husband Andy Spade, Kate kicked off her venture with 6 handbag prototypes that emphasised playful chic. The company was named Kate Spade -- Andy’s idea, even though he hadn’t yet proposed. (That would happen a few years hence.) The night before an accessories trade show, Kate was inspired to unpick all the Kate Spade labels sewn inside the bags & reattach them outside -- thus the signature Kate Spade look was born.Today, that famous label graces not only bags but also wallets, stationery, shoes, eyewear, beauty products, homewares, & more.
Clean-looking, well put together, with a nod to the classics & an element of surprise, you’ll adore these useful & irresistibly optimistic wallets by Kate Spade.
