Anouk Canvas & Calfskin Shoulder Bag

Alice Kriemler-Schoch launched Akris in Switzerland in 1922, using the letters in her name as the brand's label. Now led by the third generation of the Kriemler family, Akris is the largest Swiss clothing maker, though it still hires local artisans to create its clothing and handbags, lending to the clean, understated style of both Akris and relaxed sportswear line Akris punto.
