From Sophisticated and Elegant to Trendy and Casual.

From Sophisticated and Elegant to Trendy and Casual.

Versatile enough to mix and match, or simply "just" for that one very special evening: for every occasion and every situation, there is the perfect handbag – so a woman can never really have enough. After all, leather handbags accompany you through your daily life every step of the way, while also being a special expression of your individuality and personality.

Stylish and Perfect for Every Occasion – Handbags by modenewsteads

A long stroll through the city with your sister, a fun cocktail night with your girls, a gala evening at the opera with your loved one, or a business lunch to network: handbags, with their compact size and wide variety of shapes and colors, are simply the ideal companions for all the big and small occasions that life has in store for you.

Leather handbags with adjustable shoulder straps give you maximum freedom of movement when celebrating and dancing, while strap-less evening bags like clutches add a touch of glamour to every one of your appearances. Handle bags in classic, subdued colors add style to your business look without overstepping formal boundaries, while colorful drawstring bags and hobo bags bring the perfect amount of casualness, fun and joy to your leisure looks.

Versatile and Functional – Our Wide Selection of Leather Handbags

With all this choice and variety, making the right decision isn't always easy. But to put it in the words of star designer and TV favorite Guido-Maria Kretschmer: "When nothing else works – a clutch always works."

In addition to classic evening bags, we also offer compact casual bags, drawstring bags, hobo bags and handle bags made of leather in our diverse range. Our leather handbags not only impress with their versatile looks, but also delight with their handling and functionality. Small exterior and interior pockets provide a little extra storage space, while buckle, zipper and magnetic closures prevent you from losing your belongings while on the go.

Goatskin, Cowhide or Buffalo Leather – Which Leather Do You Prefer?

With our wide selection of leather handbags, you can not only choose between different types of handbags, but also decide based on the type of leather which models are right for you – or not. You have the choice between bags made of:

  • Goatskin
  • Cowhide
  • Buffalo Leather

Handbags made of goatskin are initially somewhat stiffer, but become very soft and supple very quickly through regular use. Our models made of cowhide or buffalo leather, on the other hand, are somewhat more resistant due to the naturally stronger material than bags made of goatskin. Even after some time, this leather still feels somewhat firmer in its structure, although these handbags also naturally become more supple. So the decision is entirely yours as to which leather best meets your expectations for your new leather handbag.

Choose Between "modenewsteads nature" and "modenewsteads studio" – Find the Perfect Leather Handbag for You!

The variety and differences in our range are also reflected in our two product lines. However, it should be said upfront that every single modenewsteads product is unique from the start – with its own individual "fingerprint", so to speak. After all, leather as a material is always a natural product.

The handbags in the "modenewsteads nature" line, as 100% natural products, are all about sustainability. This product line consists exclusively of handbags that are crafted in small family businesses in India using traditional handcraftsmanship. Individuality and uniqueness here are not just empty phrases. The goatskin used for this is vegetably tanned, dyed and greased. Therefore, it is quite possible that your new modenewsteads nature bag may initially have a slightly more intense leather scent. However, this fades with regular use of the bag. Smaller "imperfections" in the surface and structure of your new leather handbag, which are simply unavoidable due to the free-range keeping of the goats, essentially contribute to its individual vintage look.

However, if you are more looking for a stylish-functional companion for your day that catches the eye with its modern-urban charm, or if you prefer a classic-elegant it-piece for your evening wardrobe, then you will certainly find what you are looking for in our "modenewsteads studio" product line! The cowhide or buffalo leather predominantly used for these evening bags, handle bags and clutches is chemically tanned with chrome in certified Indian facilities, giving the "modenewsteads studio" leather handbags special strength and allowing them to be offered not only in classic colors but also in seasonal trend colors.
