To celebrate the launch of our Icons Collection we spoke to the talented women behind each reimagined Icon. Jen shared with us her interest in fashion and her thoughts on the exclusive Verona bag for the Icons Collection.

Jen Ceballos is an American-Colombian model living in Miami. Known for her iconic images and edgy style, Jen was drawn to reinterpret the Verona with its eye-catching plait detail. The limited edition Verona is crafted with Italian crinkled patent leather in deep mocha, resulting in a modern yet vintage look. The reimaged Verona adds a point of difference to any outfit and will transcend across the seasons.

"I chose the glossy leather for my reimagined Verona to create a chic and cool bag that can be worn for every occasion."

What made you want to join forces with DeMellier for this collaboration?

I have always loved DeMellier bags, the quality and design of them has always caught my eye. The collaboration was an easy decision and a great fit.

Why did you choose the Verona bag as your limited edition Icon?

I wanted to create a bag that was different, cool and chic - something that you can wear with everything. I really think we have succeeded and the Verona with the iconic plait detail was my favourite DeMellier bag from the beginning.

What have you enjoyed most about the designing process with the DeMellier team?

I really admire that the majority of DeMellier’s team are women, and it was a joy to work with the all female design team on this collaboration. It truly is a female power team and I loved being part of that. I chose the glossy leather for my reimagined Verona to create a chic and cool bag that can be worn with everything.

I was just so excited - that is the best way of describing it!

Personally I love to wear it with jeans and a white t-shirt, but I designed it to work with everything, so I encourage you to wear it how you want to, in a way that makes you feel your absolute best self.
