Why Yuzefi is worth it
Yuzefi makes bags you can spot across a room: soft, sculpted leather shapes where a fold or a knot does the work a logo would.
The shape comes first: rounded, softly folded leather with a signature knot that also sets the strap length. Each bag is handmade in southern Spain from Italian leather, in smooth, pebbled and suede finishes alongside calf hair and embossed textures, so even the classic browns and blacks look considered.

About Yuzefi
Naza Yousefi, who grew up in Iran and trained at Central Saint Martins, founded Yuzefi in London in 2016 after years in ready-to-wear. Her first bags were boxy and bolted together, using leather-molding methods borrowed from furniture making.
The label later softened into organic curves, folds and knots, and grew into shoes and ready-to-wear while keeping the bag at its heart.
