Botkier

A native to New York City, Monica Botkier delved into the fashion industry in 2003.  Working as a fashion photographer shooting for magazines such as Surface and Mademoiselle, Monica was on the brink of becoming the internationally recognized accessories designer she is today. Using her developed photographers eye for detail, artistry and key functionality, Monica took on a new niche in the fashion industry. Inspired by her urban chic and busy downtown Manhattan lifestyle, Monica designed and produced her first handbag collection that resulted in immediate cult status.

Botkier has created a niche in the market where there was a void, an approachable designer brand. Our accessories embody luxury through custom detailing, innovation and quality while focusing on functionality. Reality for the modern woman. Important too is the price, sitting just under high-end designer labels. Botkier is at a unique vantage point and position in the market. An independent brand that marries luxury with utility.

A favorite among celebrity fashion icons, Botkier handbags have been spotted in tow of many of the most recognized women in the world; Angelina Jolie, Jessica Alba, Lindsay Lohan, Heidi Klum, Joy Bryant and Kate Bosworth, to name a few.
