MYRIAM SCHAEFER

Parisian-born Myriam Schaefer, the designer behind global fashion phenomena such as Balenciaga’s City bag, created her eponymous collection to transcend trends. What she describes as “high-quality pieces that will pass through time” achieve their signature discretion and endurance through obsessed-over details, from the placement of each seam to the minimal use of hardware: decisions that keep even the largest tote extraordinarily lightweight.
