History

Founded in 1945 by Giuliana Coen Camerino in Venice, the label gained international prominence for its innovative handbag designs. The brand is historically significant for introducing the Bagonghi bag, which achieved global recognition after being used by Grace Kelly. In 1956, Camerino received the Neiman Marcus Fashion Award, solidifying her influence. The house is credited with pioneering the concept of the status handbag and integrating optical illusions into high-fashion garments and accessories.
