m2malletier

Established in Barcelona in 2012 by Parsons-educated Colombian designers Melissa Losada and Marcela Velez, M2Malletier is a luxury handbag brand celebrated for its fusion of architectural minimalism and surrealism. The duo draws inspiration from influential figures like French interior designer Jean-Michel Frank and Catalan architect Ricardo Bofill, translating their principles into structured, elegant leather goods. The brand's unmistakable hallmark is its signature linear metal handle, often called “the needle,” which was inspired by medieval armor and historical medical instruments. This distinctive hardware adorns sculptural bags crafted from high-quality leathers, reflecting a commitment to artisanal production—the earliest collections were reportedly produced in the same factory as Spanish luxury house Loewe.
