our story
MARC BERNSTEIN NEW YORK was officially created in 2002. Then an assistant to elite fashion photographers Patrick Demarchelier and Steven Sebring, Marc began to teach himself the art of leather craft when he struggled to find accessories that reflected his personal style and met his high quality standards. After producing his first leather cuff bracelet, word soon got out that Marc Bernstein was fashioning a new design revolution from New York’s own Lower East Side.
Over the next 17 years, Marc continued to expand his collection to include belts, handbags, necklaces, keychains, and wallets. As Marc’s artisanship has deepened, so too has his desire to infuse multiple perspectives and stories into his work.
Marc Bernstein New York collections have been featured in Vogue and sold in Barneys CO-OP, Selfridges, and Harvey Nichols. When he’s not creating in his New York studio, Marc travels the world, challenging himself to infuse new elements and cultural traditions into his work.
