Boyy
Cosmopolitan (adj): “with a wide experience of people and things from many different countries”. Although sometimes used wrongly or misconstrued, it's the perfect description of Boyy. The brand was born in New York, two years after its founders Jesse Dorsey and Wannasiri Kongman first met. It quickly made its mark in NYC, with chic, stylish bags that could give even the biggest Parisian houses a run for their money, and coveted by fashionable New Yorkers looking for exceptional designs. With an increasingly loyal American clientèle, Dorsey and Kongman decided to take on a new challenge and set their sights further afield. Without further ado, they left the Big Apple and settled in Italy and Thailand. Jesse Dorsey operates from Milan, and Wannasiri Kongman, Bangkok. Two style offices for an injection of creativity and additional backdrops from which to draw inspiration, all in the pursuit of exceptional handbags.
Their cultures and influences are what have made Boyy the brand it is today, producing super-stylish, elegant handbags known for their meticulous details. The most iconic element of a Boyy design is undoubtedly its oversized belt buckle. Whether metallic or covered in tone-on-tone leather, it features on the Bobby, Fred, Square Scrunchy and Buckle Pouchette. The famous Buckle Pouchette is actually one of our personal faves: much more than a simple shoulder bag, its strap is accessorised with a tiny pocket designed to store a lipstick. A playful and glamorous touch. Slightly more refined and with more architectural curves, the Lotus, Disc and Wonton feature signature metal clips that allow their straps to be crossed or uncrossed. Created in beautiful earthy and understated shades, Boyy designs are the modern accessories you've been looking for. Perfect for city ‘fits, they're your new go-to for a chic and preppy style. And for even more whimsical fashion fans, Monnier Paris offers a selection of their Charms, mini-bags that can be used as bag accessories. So why not add a mini Bobby to your big Bobby and make sure you really stand out?
