ARE STUDIO is a Los Angeles-based company specializing in leather bags and limited edition clothing collections, offering daily-wear pieces with a timeless and understated approach since 2016. Our accessories take on the personality of the wearer — over time, each piece becomes a unique record of a life well-lived.

Our name is inspired by the plural and present tense of the verb “to be,” and this is how our pieces are meant to be experienced — in motion, in the moment, a way to express ourselves and show others who we are.

Founder, Cecilia Bordarampé sketches every design by hand, having a personal touch throughout all steps of the process. She works closely with our leather craftsman, located only a short mile from our downtown studio. We are proud to have worked with the same family-owned manufacturer since 2015.
