Katrin Leiber

A German in Paris

German designer Katrin Leiber studied in Paris and finished as the best graduate of her year. She then worked as a freelancer for internationally known labels and fulfilled her lifetime dream in 2003: she presented her first own bag collection, which was immediately received very well by retail and the international fashion press. Today, Katrin Leiber bags and shoes are available worldwide at premium stores in Tokyo, New York, Los Angeles, Miland, Rome and all major French cities.

Katrin Leiber is a French brand headquartered in Paris – the designer’s adopted home. She works only with the finest leathers and high-quality accessories. The look of the 2009/10 Autumn/Winter collection is described as cosmopolitan, chic, functional and feminine. Ornate leather details purposely intersperse clear-cut lines, the jewellery is pompous and a touch of vintage mixes with modernity and glamour.. Subtle tones and colour combinations look sophisticated. The materials used include exquisite calf and goatskin as well as matt/glossy and/or lasered lambskin and patent leather. A speciality of Katrin Leiber are replaceable heels in a wide variety of materials and shapes that perfectly match her bags.

Bags come in all sizes – from XL bags for the city to tiny clutch bags for the evening. Recommended retail prices are between approx. € 150 and € 450. Shoes cost between approx. € 270 and € 480. In Germany sales are handled exclusively by Kay & Pearl GmbH from Mannheim.
