About Me
- aRuff
- Design and couture-level craftsmanship comes naturally to Andrea Ruff, who mastered the sewing machine before she even learned how to ride a bike. Her approach has always been hands on, learning to make bags by sewing them herself. After getting her start in the fashion industry as a tailor, she later worked in haute couture. Andrea's experience as a stylist for many years—handpicking boleros and boots for photo shoots in Mexico, seeking out sandals that matched the bright sun of Mauritius, and procuring geyser-appropriate gowns in Iceland—has given her a global perspective on street style. Andrea Ruff's chic yet functional handbags seamlessly integrate themselves into the lives of discerning urban dwellers.
