Luxury Handbags and Accessories Julien Fournié Haute Couture
Julien Fournié Haute Couture is a Paris maison holding the Haute Couture designation, granted by the French Ministry of Industry in January 2017. Since December 2020, the Maison has produced luxury handbags, tote bags, clutches and belts — each one drawn by Julien Fournié, in leather and coated canvas, as unique pieces or in small series.
PARIS · HAUTE COUTURE · SINCE 2009
Art, carried
Every bag begins as a drawing on the same table as the couture collections, held to the same rule: nothing approximate.
A sculpture, sized for a shoulder.
The Atelier
Everything begins with a drawing
The line, the volume, the metalwork, the embroidery, the monogram: all are drawn by hand by Julien Fournié. The leathers and the canvases are chosen by him, piece by piece.
The bags are then made by the workshops the Maison entrusts them to — chosen for their hand, and kept.
Nothing is drawn by a studio. Nothing is selected by a purchasing department. Nothing is moved to another workshop to recover a margin.
Haute Couture bags are unique pieces. The Hexagon line is made in small series. There is no seasonal overstock, no clearance, and nothing to destroy at the end of a season — because nothing was overproduced at the start of it.
The Big Bang Handbags
Born from a spark. Made to shine
The everyday Handbag of the Maison: a short volume, a chain, and an ornament set flush into the leather. Drawn by Julien Fournié, down to the metalwork. Available in eleven colours.

Haute Couture Handbags
More than a bag, a position
Julien Fournié draws his bags where he draws his collections — in the same atelier, in the same season, in the same hand. The line comes first. The function follows, and never contradicts it.
The forms borrow from the couture silhouettes: sculptural volumes, closed colours, metal ornament set flush rather than applied. The embroidery is drawn before it is worked. None of the pieces carries a visible logo.
A Julien Fournié bag is not a finishing touch. It is a position — held with a plain coat as readily as with an evening dress.
Everyday luxury
The Hexagon Line
An exclusive monogram
The Hexagon is the only line the Maison produces in series. Small series.
It is cut from a coated canvas, printed with the monogram Julien Fournié drew himself, from the honeycomb of bees read as a figure of infinity. It is the only signature the Maison places on the outside of a bag.
When a series is finished, it is not reissued and it is not discounted. It is simply finished.

Paris · Founded in 2009
In January 2017 the Maison was granted the Haute Couture designation — a title protected by the French Ministry of Industry and held by a small number of houses. It is awarded on the work of the atelier, not on the size of the company.
Since December 2020 the Maison has extended that work to bags, belts and accessories. The intention has not changed since the first collection: to make objects that outlive the season that produced them.
