In the fall of 2023, Kate Spade New York is introducing a new icon, Dakota, a handbag collection that celebrates the brand's identity and offers a range of new designs. Dakota blends timeless and contemporary design elements, creating an effect that will captivate fashion enthusiasts worldwide.
With Dakota, Kate Spade New York unveils a new design for the sculpted logo accessory – developed using innovative design techniques inspired by the iconic architecture of New York City, the brand's home for 30 years. Dakota combines the brand's commitment to high-quality craftsmanship with a fresh take on modern aesthetics. The accessory features distinctive touches that add depth and subtle richness within warm golden hues, creating a striking contrast. The most distinctive details are the color accents that express the vitality integral to Kate Spade's identity.
Jennifer Liu, Senior Vice President and Head of Leather and Accessories Product Design at Kate Spade New York, said, “The Dakota handbag embodies Kate Spade New York's commitment to offering products that stand the test of time and align with the lifestyle of the modern woman.
Our customer is a constant source of inspiration for us. It's a distinct bag, striking a balance between new experiences and life's responsibilities.” “Dakota's secret strength lies in enhancing our unique brand perspective while offering a level of distinct modernity. We wanted to create a collection that creatively embodies Kate Spade and appeals to a range of customers, both current and new, who look to evolve their personal style and tell their own stories with our products.”
On the 30th anniversary of Kate Spade New York, the introduction of Dakota complements current brand icons such as Kate Spade Green, alongside distinctive design elements like lines and geometric dots, all coming together to create a distinctive visual signature for the brand.
Dakota will be launched in the fall of 2023, reflecting the brand's distinctive character while maintaining durability and practical design. The new style is available in a wide range of elegant and vibrant colors, including teal, green, black, and cream. Priced between $358 and $428, Dakota is a means of self-expression that will shine in both practical and special occasions. It is available now for purchase on katespade.com, and the brand will continue to expand the collection season after season.
