ABOUT US

Our Story

DeMellier was founded with the vision of doing things differently: to design handbags that would make women feel empowered, made ethically and sustainably, while giving back to those who need it most. All our pieces are crafted ethically in Europe using the finest sustainably sourced materials, and for every piece sold, DeMellier funds vaccines and treatments aimed to save the life of a child in need.

The Journey

I have always been a perfectionist and never liked no as an answer, even if it has often meant taking the hardest route, so I embarked on a mission to create handbags with no compromises. They had to be modern and of the highest quality, ethically and sustainably made but also attainable and socially conscious, DeMellier was born.

All our pieces are ethically made in our trusted factories in Europe using the finest materials sustainably sourced, and for every piece you purchase we fund vaccines and treatments aimed to save the life of a child in need.

Welcome to DeMellier, I hope you like our collections and that you’ll join us on this journey of creating with integrity, empowering women and giving back.

DeMellier

DeMellier symbolises the mix of old and new, of heritage and modernity.
