When advertising executive Alexandra de Curtis became a mother she found it impossible to find a baby's bag that was both practical and stylish - so she designed her own. The chic bags proved so successful that Alexandra has turned to accessory design full-time, with a line of ultra-luxe leather and python bags and accessories that are perfect for the busy modern woman who refuses to compromise on style.

DIA SAYS: With their bright hues and luxe fabrics, Alexandra de Curtis accessories have caught the eyes of fashion editors from Vogue to Tatler - and are quickly being snapped up as investment pieces by stylish women across Europe.
