Two designers,
one family passion
Sisters Nathalie and Ninny were born to design handbags. Their parents, master leather artisans for prestigious Maisons in Paris, exposed them to the craft early on. They did their homework at their parent’s atelier, took naps on piles of leather, and soon, started played with designs of their own
The younger sister, Nathalie, had a wildly creative spirit, love of fashion and talent for working with leather. The streets of Paris were the perfect inspiration for her to refine her design aesthetic and to see first-hand how deeply connected handbags are to a woman’s personal style and everyday life. Her designs quickly took shape.
Ninny’s knack for business and management created the ultimate balance. She had a grounding effect, keeping every single detail in order while Nathalie’s creative inspirations took flight.
The sisters embarked on their Nat & Nin adventure together in 2005, opening their atelier in the heart of Paris. They were 19 and 25 years old. With Nathalie’s creative passion for working with leather matched with Ninny’s business smarts, they ignited the scene with instant success. Today, their bags are the wardrobe staples of many a Parisian’s wardrobe.
