Over the past decade, Edinburgh-based design house Strathberry has become one of the fashion elite’s most sought after brands, its signature handbags dangling from the arms of A-listers around the world.
Founded by husband and wife duo, Guy and Leeanne Hundleby, in 2013, the brand has been described as a “quiet luxury stalwart” by Harper’s Bazaar, thanks in part to high quality Spanish craftsmanship, elegant, simplistic style, and an instantly recognisable bar closure – not to mention its legion of celebrity fans.
As Strathberry celebrates its milestone 10th anniversary, here, we look at 10 times its totes, clutches, cross-body bags had an outing with Hollywood (and royals).
Strathberry is said to be one of HRH Princess Kate’s favourite brands, having accessorised with the likes of the Multrees Chain wallet and other styles at Royal events.
