Who is Ms. Bay?
Ms. Bay is not your average luxury handbag brand.
We care for perfect design, top-quality materials and flawless execution.
But we also care for our common future. Our ideology is one of timeless design, social responsibility and environmental awareness.
Slow fashion: Buy now, love forever
Ms. Bay was founded by Saskia Aelen and Lawrence Dedroog in Antwerp, Belgium. We learnt more about the contemporary fashion industry when working for a large mass-production company. We got to know the true face of fast fashion: mass production, social injustice, environmental issues.

Slow fashion is a movement that represents the eco, the ethical, the sustainable fashion which commits to slowing down the rate of fashion consumption. It’s a matter of quality over quantity.
“At Ms. Bay, we believe sustainable and fairtrade products can look luxurious and sophisticated.
Our collection of handbags and small leathergoods are simple yet elegant, fashionable but timeless.”

Ms. Bay produces in Kolkata, India. We only collaborate with factories that are in line with our vision and values. All of the factories we work with, are SA8000 standard certified. This means that they qualify for fair trade standards regarding child labour, health and safety, discrimination, remuneration, …
