“ The label started late in 2012 and is a creative project dedicated to designing and manufacturing beautiful, hand-made accessories from honest, responsibly sourced materials that are crafted in Britain to last and inspire.

Through my collections I aim to reconsider the ordinary; to enhance and beautify; to challenge the things we already know.
I want to clear away conventional standards of luxury by magnifying what is essential and editing out excess.

Designing through a process of adding, exploring, adding more and then taking away, I strip away until I am left with a new basic form or silhouette.
Whilst designing I seek to offer an intelligent, minimalistic, alternative to accessories through the exploration of form and utilitarian materials, finding continual inspiration in returning to square one.”

Latest Collection

Collection no.004

Following on the theme of armour within your everyday accessories which we worked with in our last collection, we have kept the strong protective aesthetic in Collection no.4.
Our previous collection 'Sisterhood' looked at romantic pre-raphaelite paintings featuring silver armour and we wished to develop and work with this idea further for Collection 4.
The colour palette remains minimal yet classic in black and silver. The simple colour palette draws the eye to the detailed work within the construction of the bags.
The bags are largely hand stitched with leather and studded together. Another signature detail from the label. All bags from Lauren Geoghegan are made in house at the London studio.
