ABOUT
Danielle Nicole handbags fuse runway inspiration and real life accessibility in a feminine, chic and
contemporary way. The brand represents a fresh twist on classic styling and incorporates detailed
custom hardware and exclusive materials from all around the world.
Danielle Nicole was founded by Designer and Creative Director Danielle DiFerdinando, who
began her journey in the fashion industry at the age of 18. While attending the Fashion Institute
of Technology in New York, her passion led her to study abroad in Europe where she apprenticed
with several major high-end design houses. Upon returning, Danielle put her new insider’s view of
the design and manufacturing process to work by designing, constructing and, of course, wearing
her own handbags.
It was during her internship at Bergdorf Goodman that her talent was first noticed. The
cosmetic buyer was impressed by Danielle’s work and asked her to create a line of cosmetic bags
for the store. The rest, as they say, is history. Before long, Danielle was designing complete leather
collections for Bergdorf Goodman, Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdale’s and Lane
Crawford.
Danielle’s incredible journey continues. DiFerdinando was named one of Forbes Magazine’s 30
Under 30 for 2015, and in June of 2015, Danielle Nicole Jewelry launched — Selling out in the first
collection. The line incorporates Danielle’s signature style — jewelry that is modern, easily layerable and ones that act as classic wardrobe staples.
The brand is currently sold in major retailers and specialty boutiques all over the world, and has
“ G R E AT S T Y L E I S D E F I N E D B Y T H E
W O M A N , N OT T H E P R I C E TA G . ”
attracted a growing following of celebrities and fashion trendsetters. Never taking her success for
granted, Danielle is committed to giving back. She serves as a member on the Board of Associates
for Ronald McDonald House New York, and has volunteered and helped raise funds for notable
charities like the Cal Ripken, Sr. Foundation, House of Ruth, the Lupus Foundation, and American
— Danielle
Heart Association.
