Maison De Madisse Makes Its Mark with Luxury Handbags!!
Written by Elisabeth Collazos, Gemma Magazine!
Who wants to avoid owning a luxury handbag? They make a statement and entirely
pull your outfit together while setting the tone for your style aesthetic. It is even
confidence-boosting.
At Maison De Madisse, you will find distinctive and anything but ordinary bags.
Maison De Madisse knows that luxury is buying something exclusive and is an
exceptional online handbag boutique based in Southern California that offers
gorgeous and functional bags. They hand-pick unique designs from Italian designers
and import genuine leather handbags directly from Italy made with the finest Italian
leather. The brand’s collection embodies bold designs, bright colors, high quality, and
sexy silhouettes. Their handbags are the ultimate standout piece.
Madison Emami is the creator of Maison De Madisse, and she runs her brand
with passion and determination. Madison started her company during the pandemic
and has not let up. She has made European fashion more accessible to the U.S. market,
inspiring her to create Maison De Madisse. Madison has always loved handbags —
exceptionally high-quality, well-crafted leather bags; therefore, Madison chose to sell
this particular product. She genuinely enjoys building her online platform as it gives
her a place to be creative, which is why she is attracted to entrepreneurship. Madison
has had a positive response to her handbags since day one. Only six months after
launching Maison De Madisse, the brand was invited to present its collection of
handbags at the Orange County Fashion Week runway.

Madison was inspired to start a luxury handbag company when she realized how
many women love Italian handbags; bags of high quality with detailed designs and
craftsmanship. Yet, there was a considerable gap in the market for a midway price
point. However, this would become her niche.
When Madison had a moment to stop, she spoke with LA-Story.com about being an
entrepreneur, the Maison De Madisse Collection, and her inspiration!
Let’s get into it!
Elisabeth Collazos for LA-Story.com:
What motivated you to start Maison de Madisse?
Madison Emami:
I was inspired when I realized how many women love Italian handbags, bags of high
quality with detailed designs and craftsmanship. Yet, there was a considerable gap
in the market for a midway price point. At one end of the spectrum, we find our
beloved couture and designer bags that cost thousands of dollars, and on the opposite
end, we find poorly made imports at a much lower cost. However, finding a genuine
“Made in Italy” leather bag priced somewhere in between was tough. I want to fill
this gap in the market by offering unique European leather handbags at a more
affordable price range.
LA-Story.com:
Where do you find inspiration for the handbags that you choose?
Madison Emami:
The past often inspires me and how history has shaped fashion. In the 1930s, there
was an explosion of creativity and a return to a feminine look as people were recuperating
from the aftershock of troubled times. We’re in a similar mood as we break free from
the Covid entrapment. People are now traveling, partying, and enjoying life with more
incredible zest, leading to a desire to put more effort into our looks and focus more on
fashion. The bags I choose are versatile and functional, offering a pinch of elegance and
a hint of glamour. I have worked very hard to become a successful entrepreneur.

Do you feel that Maison de Madisse has made European fashion and quality more accessible with handbags?
Madison Emami:
My goal from day one has been to produce European style more accessible!
Many Designers and Artisans in Italy work in small towns that need a worldwide
presence. These Designers have the talent and expertise to create high-quality
products; they don’t have the funding to be commercialized. By constantly
exploring opportunities and developing relationships with these Designers,
Maison De Madisse can make exclusive European handbags more accessible by
bringing them to your doorstep.
LA-Story.com:
Please describe the Maison de Madisse customer.
Madison Emami:
The MDM customer is confident and fashionable! They like being envied for their
unique sense of style. They are financially savvy and appreciate a humble bag, often
preferring to spend big money on travel and adventure. Still, they also demand quality
and want what they deserve.
LA-Story.com:
Do you feel most women love having a statement bag?
Madison Emami:
Absolutely! The handbag you carry can tell a lot about you and, in my opinion, it offers
one of the easiest ways to make a fashion statement. Women love holding a bag that
catches attention! A statement bag not only completes an outfit by bringing it all together
but oftentimes MAKES the outfit!
LA-Story.com:
What is one of the biggest lessons you have learned as an
entrepreneur?
Madison Emami:
Being an entrepreneur requires you to be flexible. If a product you had your heart set on
“isn’t” selling, change it. If a strategy isn’t working, change it. You have to listen to your
customer and be open to pivoting as often as possible. Don’t get in your way by fighting
the direction the wind is blowing.
LA-Story.com:
How do you like the curation process?
Madison Emami:
Curating a collection for Maison De Madisse is the most fun part of my job, but it can be
challenging! I have specific criteria for each bag that is added to the collection. The most
crucial standard is quality, but another criterion I focus on is functionality. Most
of us are not movie stars on the red carpet. Our bags need to be functional while fashionable!
So although many of our bags have designs with unique shapes and silhouettes, they will
easily fit much of what goes into an everyday tote. Even our evening and mini bags are
deceiving in a good way!
LA-Story.com:
Do you have any signature styles, shapes, or features that are a hallmark of the
Maison De Madisse collection?
Madison Emami:
Styles that are understated but elegant and have a unique element are our signature.
Sometimes that element is a shape; other times, it is an intricate stitching. But if I must
choose a hallmark for Maison De Madisse, it’s color. I will always make black available
to those who ask for it, but our hallmark offers an array of vibrant colors. A handbag’s
unique elements are typically much more apparent in a brighter color, but more importantly,
it represents confidence. Embodying the freedom to mix and match colors in your ensemble
offers a sense of liberation, which most modern women strive for.
LA-Story.com:
What handbag styles will we see for Spring?
Madison Emami:
We’ll continue to see bright, bold, and happy colors for Spring as the post-covid era calls
for adventure and playfulness. Quiet luxury and the humble bag have made their mark
in the handbag world as people crave a minimalistic, understated, chic vibe. Valuable
pieces like structured work bags and top handle styles are trendy now as many are
returning to an office setting.
