The Full Story Behind Anne Klein Collection

Anne Klein
Lead Handbag Designer

****
At Anne Klein, I began as an Off-Price Handbag Designer, helping grow a multi-million-dollar business by 15%. Following the company’s acquisition by Steve Madden, I was brought on as the only designer from Anne Klein, overseeing both off-price and mainline collections. I trained the cross-functional team on the brand’s DNA, managed freelancers, and designed best-selling prints, playing a pivotal role in jump-starting the brand under new ownership and driving creative direction and business growth.
