As a tribute to the iconic heritage of "Callot" (Maison Calvet), within the world of Parisian Couture during the first half of the XX Century, our stunning collections of hand-made handbags reveal the allure, chic, sophistication and unparalleled beauty of exotic skins.
Recently honoured by the European Fashion Organisation "2008 Trendiest Designer Label for Glamour", Along with Alexander McQueen, Anna Sui, Armani, Calvin Klein, Chanel,Christian Dior, D&G, Gucci, John Galiano, Marc Jacobs, Prada, Roberto Cavalli, Stella McCartney, Philip Plein, Versace and Balenciaga; we excel at hand-crafting luxurious handbags that are a reflection of the woman who has her own style: Sensual. Elegant. Feminine.
"Fashions pass, style is eternal. Fashion is futile, style is not." These words by Yves Saint Laurent evince our philosophy.
At our Atelier in fashionable Buenos Aires, we create luxury that is carefully hand-crafted, chic, elegant and timeless. This is the manner in which our gifted Master-Artisans express their supreme talent: by lending extreme care and attention to detail to each design. The passion for the fine art of handbag creation is betoken in our finished handbags.
In the XXI century, the Calvet name is once again at the vanguard of fashion. Only that this time, it is our handbags that take center stage. We bring back the lifestyle and sophistication that had defined the "Callot-Calvet" woman. We are Art-à-Porter.
