Our Story
Crafted in Colombia. Coveted everywhere.
Our Heritage
Born from a deep connection to Colombia's rich artisanal traditions, dGW partners with master craftspeople in Medellín who bring generations of expertise to every piece. Each bag is a testament to their skill—meticulously handcrafted using time-honored techniques passed down through families.
Our Craft
We work exclusively with premium vegetable-tanned leather, choosing this chrome-free process not just for its environmental benefits, but for the beautiful patina it develops over time. Paired with 100% cotton linings and solid brass hardware, our bags are designed to become more beautiful with age—true investment pieces that tell your story.
Our Commitment
At design Girls World, ethical luxury isn't a compromise—it's our foundation:
- Fair Wages: We ensure our artisans earn living wages that support their families and communities
- Sustainable Materials: Chrome-free leather, natural dyes, and eco-conscious packaging
- Transparent Production: Every bag can be traced back to the hands that made it
- Economic Impact: Creating stable, dignified employment in Medellín's artisan community
Our Vision
From our atelier in Puerto Rico to boutiques worldwide, dGW is redefining what luxury means. We believe true luxury lies in knowing the hands that crafted your bag, the story behind each stitch, and the positive impact of your purchase. As we work toward B Corporation certification, we remain committed to proving that exceptional design and ethical production are not just compatible—they're inseparable.Welcome to design Girls World. Where every bag carries a story worth telling.
