Step into Hester van Eeghen, a chic Amsterdam boutique where vibrant leather bags and accessories burst with Dutch flair and clever design.
"Hester van Eeghen With their bold, unexpected color combinations and cool geometric shapes, Hester van Eeghen’s leather bags have gained a cultlike following in Amsterdam . Just about every Dutch fashionista owns one of these distinctive, über-functional purses—and likely a backpack and wallet too. Van Eeghen also brings her stylish design sensibility to briefcases, laptop holders, gloves, and shoes. All goods are conceived in Amsterdam and manufactured in Milan , which means excellent craftsmanship and the finest leather—with prices to match. Her flagship is on Hartenstraat in the chic Nine Streets area; there’s another location in the gallery district on Nieuwe Spiegelstraat."
"A serious dose of Dutch style. One of the most acclaimed Dutch handbag designers, but relatively unsung abroad, this 30-year-old label turns out geometric, color-popping totes and briefcases that manage to be both droll and super-chic. Van Eeghen’s designs are among the best in the business, gracing MOMA as well as the local Tassenmuseum, devoted to bags. Van Eeghen started out making wallets, but now offers a brilliant array of bags—totes, cross-body purses, and ultra-streamlined evening models—as well as eye-catching shoes, gloves, and accessories. The main branch, listed, is for the bags, but there’s also a shoe store on the same street, and a mostly men’s outpost on Nieuwe Spiegelstraat, which is less than 15 minutes away by foot." - Clodagh Kinsella
