Helen was at the time in the final throws of qualifying as a Solicitor when she decided to abandon her 9-5 job to fulfil a lifelong passion for design and fashion. Gerard, already an entrepreneur, brought his commercial skills, wit and experience to the table, giving Helen some much needed encouragement and confidence to get the business off the ground.
Together with their newfound friends they all worked around the clock and the first Blondie Mania leather handbag collection was launched in the autumn of 2005.
Their experiment was a big hit. Boutiques, department stores and consumers alike were all drawn to the quirky simplicity of the designs, the sumptuous soft leather and the vibrant pink lining. Today, Blondie Mania supplies around 300 stores in the UK and Europe.
Sitting somewhere between the high street and the designer market, Blondie Mania offers decadence and longevity from a handbag that does not come with a ridiculous price tag.
Blondie Mania Leones Bag in Lavender - £145
Blondie Mania Safi Shoulder Bag - Indigo £115
Blondie Mania Leather Petrolina Bag - Chocolate Brown - £165
