AGNES BADDOO

Agnes Baddoo's creative journey is rooted in a deep connection with the world around her. A former editorial fashion stylist and costumer, she finds inspiration in the ever-changing tapestry of our environment and the rich tapestry of human interactions, as expressed through the medium of fashion. Her work is a reflection of her genuine appreciation for craftsmanship and techniques, resourcefulness and a passion for simple, functional designs.

Her leather goods, like the iconic Sac 1, stand as testaments to her commitment to quality and timelessness. Crafted from the finest leathers, these pieces are a harmonious blend of soft and hard lines, offering a distinct style that remains relevant year after year.

Every element of Agnes Baddoo's collection is chosen with care and thoughtfulness, resulting in a unique composition that speaks to the heart of her artistic vision. The shapes are not just aesthetically pleasing; they are also designed to seamlessly integrate into our daily lives, adapting to the evolving world around us. 

Agnes Baddoo's leather goods come to life through the hands of a small, dedicated artisan led production team based in Los Angeles. Their meticulous attention to detail ensures that each piece is a work of art in its own right. The result is a collection of leather goods that exude timeless elegance and possess enduring value. These are not mass-produced items; they are small-batch creations, made in limited quantities, infused with a genuine sense of purpose and authenticity.

Baddoo became a designer out of necessity. She had taken a favorite bag that once belonged to her mother to the shoemaker so many times, they had to change the proportion and move the handles and closures until they couldn’t do it anymore. Undeterred, “I set out to find someone who could make the bag for me,” she says.
