About

Hi! Welcome to Claire Akkan Bags. 

I’m a Manhattan-based designer dedicated to giving materials and bags a second life. My line includes handbags, makeup bags, and pencil cases made entirely from leftover atelier fabrics and vintage textiles, ensuring every piece is both zero-waste and one of a kind. I believe the next generation of It Bags isn’t just about design—it’s about the stories behind them.

My bags are built to meet the moments in your life - from Pencil Pouches to carry with you everywhere to Makeup Bags ready for all your travels, to the Adventure Bag for days out in the city. 

I’m proud to sell my bags at 15 stores across the country. 

If you have questions or comments, feel free to get in touch with me at claire@claireakkan.com. Follow us on Instagram at @claireakkan.bags and on TikTok at @claireakkan 

Thanks for being here.
