3 brands to know The labels creating the season’s best shoes and handbag designs
ROSETTA GETTY
Inspired by a personal love and respect for the art world, designer ROSETTA GETTY partners with a different artist every season to shape the mood, palette and fabrics of her collection. The result is unexpected and sophisticated – with an effortlessly elevated simplicity running through the core current of the brand. The New York designer also champions the finest, most luxurious materials and utmost craftsmanship, meaning each piece is perfect down to the meticulous finishing. Why we love it? For giving us day-to-night accessories done with distinction.
LE NINÉ
Founded by friends Francesca Ferri and Fiorella Polito, Le Ninè delivers on the season’s most delightfully decadent basket bags. Inspired by the bright colours and optimistic attitude of the Apulia region in Italy, each circular seagrass basket is adorned with the likes of coloured and sparkling stone scatterings, feather trim and ribbon handles. The designers call their creations “baskets of happiness” – and we couldn’t agree more. Why we love it? Delivering on the most elevated update of the humble market bag.
EMMA CHARLES
After cutting her teeth at Preen by Thornton Bregazzi and Tom Ford, EMMA CHARLES went on to form her eponymous label. Championing punchy colour, high-quality fabrics and innovative application techniques, the London-based designer displays the perfect mix of playfulness and elegance in every design. Her hoop-handled “dumpling” bags – which balance that elusive sweet spot between timeless and modern – are a runway style this season.
