To celebrate the launch of our Icons Collection we spoke to the talented women behind each reimagined Icon. We caught up with Lorna to find out more about the designing process and what she loves most about the limited edition Nano Montreal she helped create.

Lorna Humphrey is a London based lawyer and content creator. A lover of timeless design combined with practicality, Lorna chose the Nano Montreal as her icon. Crafted with Italian smooth leather in a warm sand colourway and finished with leather trim details, the limited edition Nano Montreal is easy to wear for many occasions, and is the ideal bag for transitioning from day to night.

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

There are so many reasons. DeMellier is a brand that I admire and I have worked with for years. I love that it is a female owned brand and it champions women. DeMellier bags are also great quality and sustainably made. The collaboration was just a natural fit for me.

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

I chose the Nano Montreal bag as it has a timeless style and it also fits all essentials. I love its versatility - it can be worn with the long strap over the shoulder or with the top handle. The Nano Montreal is also great for both daytime and the evening.

What is your favourite way to style your Nano Montreal bag?

Really good question. I’ve styled it in so many ways. My 3 favourite ways that I’ve styled it are: effortlessly - with jeans, blazer, a jumper and my trainers. I’ve also styled it with work outfits - a loose fitting black trouser and a light knit. It also works great with a blouse, jeans and heels for date night or a girls night out.

Can I give two words? It’s classic and stylish.
