About ...

Nadia Minkoff was founded in 1988, with the dream and intention of manufacturing high quality ladies accessories, featuring innovative designs with imaginative detailing.

"My passion for natural materials, colour, craft, travel and all things vintage became the backbone of the Nadia Minkoff range," says Nadia.

Quintessentially British and taking great pride in its UK manufacturing, the brand is now globally recognised for its distinctive 'boutique style' image and vintage inspired feel.

2008 saw the brand showcasing its first NY show and catwalk alongside its regular showing at London Fashion Week and Tokyo. It also saw the brand's first Travel Retail listing in Virgin Atlantic's In-Flight and pre-order selection. "It was my dream to be onboard Virgin and I was delighted to create many exclusive items for them."

In 2009 the Nadia Minkoff online boutique was launched together with the SWAROVSKI, Crystalized Elements jewellery collection 'Twinkle'.

In Sept 2009, the first of four Nadia Minkoff PR shops opened in select Tokyo Takashimaya stores. And distribution rolled out to select locations in the Middle East.

"Our collections throughout 2010 and 2011 are inspired by London, my home city. I have named all my designs after the many great and beautiful districts of our capital. When asked "Which is my favourite?" I find it very hard to answer. I adore London and I simply love so many things about the city. It is my favourite city in the world and I get inspired by the diversity here."

In recognition of the brand's British roots, style and contribution to the British fashion industry Nadia Minkoff was featured in the 'Made in Britain'exhibition at the Handbag and Purse Museum in Amsterdam, Holland in 2010.

Nadia Minkoff will be at the PURE London events and The Box show in Paris this year.

As well as the Nadia Minkoff brand, Nadia and her team continue to produce successful 'own-label' ranges for some of the key high street retailers in the UK.
