Vin. was born from a shared vision and a serendipitous connection. In the summer of 2024, founders Gabby Kono-Abdy and Claudia Li Johnson found themselves united by a mutual obsession: evening handbags that are anything but predictable. What began as a simple idea between two creatives quickly grew into something larger—something that felt fresh, yet timeless. And so, Vin. was born—a collection of vintage-inspired, handmade, one-of-a-kind evening bags designed to make you feel special without breaking the bank.

Gabby’s background in acting and film production and her role as the driving force behind Little Fishy Films fuels her creative direction for Vin., making each design a reflection of artistry, elegance, and a personal narrative. Claudia’s style and influence on social media connects directly with those who appreciate high-end craftsmanship and timeless style. Claudia’s extensive list of fashion clients as well as her growing following on TikTok has made her a trusted figure in the fashion world.  

Each piece is handmade, with vintage inspiration woven into every stitch. We don’t just want you to carry a bag—we want you to carry a story. At Vin., we’re proud to offer bags that are anything but ordinary. From the first sketch to the final product, every bag is crafted with the attention it deserves, and we can’t wait for you to find the perfect one that’s as unique as you are.
