If there’s one item that feels like a true companion piece to a pair of handmade shoes, it’s an elegant, timeless handbag. As such, it was only natural that we create our own line, a collection that can be in constant conversation with our now-iconic footwear. We wanted to translate our love of traditional craft and innovative design into a new medium, allowing echoes of our shoe designs to resurface in new contexts.
In time for the holiday season, we are thrilled to be introducing our debut collection of bags. Each member of the line-up exhibits its own distinct personality, while remaining true to the unmistakeable Malone Souliers aesthetic. Among them is the Audrey, which takes a sophisticated square silhouette and creates something with an undeniably metropolitan appeal. With a flap closure and crystallised crest clasp, its structured shape makes it the perfect counterpart to a striking pair of heels.
Moving from structured to structureless, we have the Ingrid, a bucket bag with statement-making metallic handles. Cut from buttery soft nappa leather, its formlessness lends it an artful, modernist feel that will pair harmoniously with a sharp, directional outfit.
“Shoes and bags are inseparable in our collective fashion imagination. The name Malone Souliers has become synonymous with elevated footwear, and so handbags were always going to be close behind. This collection was an opportunity to apply our meticulous manufacturing techniques and keenly refined aesthetic to a new area; to push ourselves into uncharted territory, and to approach the task with excitement and optimism.”
Malone Souliers Founder and Creative Director, Mary Alice Malone
Malone Souliers’ debut bag collection will be available from the 8th of November 2022, at the Mount Street flagship store, and online at malonesouliers.com.
