neous

Founded in 2017 by former Harper's Bazaar editor Vanissa Antonious, Neous is a London-based accessories brand built on a philosophy of refined minimalism and functionality. Drawing from her background in art history and her experience as a stylist, Antonious creates footwear and handbags with clean, fluid lines and sculptural forms inspired by modern art, the Bauhaus movement, and modernist architecture. The brand is defined by its considered, architectural details, such as geometric block heels and subtle folds of supple leather, appealing to a woman who values design and quality over fleeting trends. Each collection is handcrafted in Italy by independent, family-run factories, ensuring a high level of craftsmanship and quality. Using materials sourced locally in Italy, including by-product leathers, organic cotton, and recycled fabrics, Neous speaks to an understated luxury. Signature styles often feature a neutral, versatile color palette. The brand quickly gained traction after its launch, securing placements with influential luxury retailers like Net-a-Porter and Browns, and has become a go-to for women seeking accessories that are both practical and artistically expressive.
