KATE SPADE NEW YORK

Graceful, practical, timeless – how could you not fall for Kate Spade New York? The brand's eponymous founder started out as a fashion journalist in the 80s, working in the accessories department of Mademoiselle magazine. Noting a lack of smart, affordable handbags, she went on to launch her own label in 1993, putting a decidedly American spin on everyday accessories. The impeccable designs have since come to represent poise and sophistication, combining bold colour with a hint of Manhattan charm.

Of course, our collection wouldn't be complete without the legendary spade motif. This house signature can be found on a plethora of structured tote bags, smooth leather cross-body styles and evening-appropriate clutches. Whether tucked away or front and centre, the iconic symbol helped to put Kate Spade on the map; as Anna Wintour, Editor-in-Chief of American Vogue, observed, "There was a moment you couldn't walk a block in New York without seeing one of her bags".

The Kate Spade New York fashion empire has grown to include delicate jewellery as well as sleek watches. Seek out intricate necklaces with engraved charms in our lineup, or add a pair of shimmering zirconia-encrusted earrings to daytime outfits. True to the brand's aesthetic, these pieces embody inimitable uptown polish.
