Did you know that at the Coach corporate headquarters in NYC, we have an archive housing a model of nearly every handbag we’ve created since our founding in 1941? The repository is not only a visual evolution of handbag development over the years, but a source of inspiration for our design team, who look through shelves of historical silhouettes to create contemporary designs. Ryan Bollwerk, archivist for Coach, shared with Fortune that, “[…] we are the only ones who have this at scale in North America.” Learn more – and get inspired – via the full article at fortune.com: https://lnkd.in/eCKyi6ai

The original American house of leather since 1941.
About us
Coach was founded in 1941 as a family-run workshop. In a Manhattan loft, six artisans handcrafted a collection of leather goods using skills handed down from generation to generation. Discerning consumers soon began to seek out the quality and unique nature of Coach craftsmanship. Now greatly expanded, Coach is a modern American luxury brand with a rich heritage of craftsmanship and New York style. We continue to maintain the highest standards for materials and workmanship. Coach's exceptional workforce remains committed to carefully upholding the principles of quality and integrity that define the company. We attribute the prominence of the Coach brand to the unique combination of our original American attitude and design, our heritage of fine leather goods and custom fabrics, our superior product quality and durability, and our commitment to customer service.

Last night, Coach attended the 2024 Met Gala alongside Actor, Storm Reid – who showcased a custom Coach look designed by our Creative Director, Stuart Vevers. ✨ The dress was handcrafted at the Coach workshop in New York City and was inspired by Vevers’ vision for Coach of heritage reimagined through the lens of today’s generation. The look juxtaposes American romance with youthful, counter-culture attitude, interpreting the Met’s “Garden in Time” theme. The designs incorporate references to American fashion past and present, florals, as well as love worn and re-loved materials. “The look we envisioned for Storm is inspired by the way today’s generation is rewriting the story of American fashion in their own way. Our starting point was our Fall runway, where we explored vintage party dresses and playfully subverted them. We added youthful twists whilst preserving the feeling of romance that captures the spirit of the Met and this year’s theme,” said Stuart Vevers, Creative Director.
