Frederic Lesellier
Welcome to a vibrant world of creativity and elegance!
At FREDERIC LESELLIER, we infuse artistic flair into every fashion accessory, transforming them from mere utility items into coveted collector's pieces. Each bag and shoe collection reflects the inspirations that come straight from my mind and heart, blending art, music, literature, and cinema into meticulous masterpieces.
Our journey began in France in the early '90s. Growing up in a modest suburban family with a deep appreciation for art and culture, I was drawn to a creative path despite my parents' aspirations for a stable career. Fueled by a childhood passion for drawing and a thirst for adventure, I ventured into the world of fashion design.
Overcoming obstacles and defying expectations, I honed my skills through self-taught apprenticeships and formal education, eventually finding my niche in leatherworking. Along the way, I found a partner in Axel, whose unwavering support and complementary nature became the foundation of our brand.
In 2017, we founded FREDERIC LESELLIER in the beautiful city of Nice, setting up our workshop and boutique in a historic building. Our atelier is a sanctuary for creativity, where we design, craft, and showcase each collection with passion and precision.
Driven by a passion for creating elegant, confident, and tasteful fashion accessories, we weave a touch of old-world charm into each piece, honoring a bygone era. Color is the cornerstone of our designs, more than just a visual element. We see color as an emotion, imbuing each creation with vibrant hues that evoke a spectrum of feelings and sensations.
High heels and exquisite handbags are not just accessories; they are transformative. High heels elevate more than just your height—they boost confidence and allure with every step. Handbags safeguard your privacy and showcase your personality and femininity.
Join us on this enchanting journey, where every stitch tells a story, and every accessory embodies the spirit of timeless elegance. Let yourself be charmed by the French touch that will make you shine. Welcome to the world of FREDERIC LESELLIER, where artistry meets sophistication, and dreams take flight.
