Laura Biagiotti handbag

Laura Biagiotti is a renowned Italian fashion brand founded by the designer of the same name. Known historically as the 'Queen of Cashmere,' the brand represents a major pillar of Italian high fashion. The products range from apparel to accessories like the purple fabric handbag seen here.

While the brand maintains its headquarters and heritage in Rome, manufacturing varies. High-end leather and boutique items are often made in Italy to preserve the 'Made in Italy' status, while some licensed accessory lines and ready-to-wear collections have been manufactured in China or other regions to reach a broader market.

The brand is currently managed by Biagiotti Group, and after the passing of Laura Biagiotti, her daughter Lavinia Biagiotti Cigna took over the creative and corporate leadership, ensuring the company remains an independent, family-run Italian entity.
