For some, the handbag has always served as an afterthought, the cherry on top of an already sweet outfit. Not for Jill Haber. She has always seen the bag as the star, something accentuated by clothing rather than an outfit accent. She discovered this deep passion at a young age, with days spent rummaging and reveling in her grandmother’s fashion treasures. As time progressed, she made it her mission to translate those vintage gems for the modern woman.
After years of working alongside the creative masterminds of Madison Avenue, Haber had become an aesthetic visionary herself. She took her passions abroad and watched them collide with the cultures and crafts of the world’s most influential cities. With this collective of constantly inspiring influences, she launched a highly praised collection that effortlessly encapsulates luxury, elegance, and exotic beauty.
Jill Haber is designing beyond the trends while keeping the classic 30’s and 40’s style in mind. Her bags are the balance between traditionally timeless and futuristically modern. With a deep love for handbags herself, she truly understands her consumers’ wants and works hard to exceed expectations. She keeps traditional structures but paints them over with vibrant textures, like python and ostrich. She stays away from logos and overbearing hardware, enabling the exotic skins to really sing. And she of course works with only the finest luxury skins from Italy with European trained craftsmen ready to hand make each piece in NYC.
