Both the quilted gold-toned leather and tiny gold discs create richness and playful elegance while putting a fresh spin on the timeless satchel shape.

Founded by entrepreneur Constan Hernández in 1994, Spanish fashion house Hoss Intropia utilises its creative head Paloma Vázquez de Castro’s history as former designer to the Spanish National Ballet, interpreting this refined experience into elegance, sleek shapes, and utter femininity.
Since Autumn 2011, Hoss Intropia has also been teaming up with Miguel Palacio, one of Spain’s most characterful design stars, to create Hoss Intropia Miguel Palacio, a capsule collection which exudes individualistic yet classic Spanish style. The freshness and originality of Hoss Intropia when partnered with the spirited sophistication of Miguel Palacio make us dream happy thoughts.
