History
Clare V. was founded in 2008. The brand was started by Clare Vivier, who initially worked directly with family-owned factories in L.A. to bring her vision to life. The company still works with three L.A. leather goods factories that make the bulk of its handbag assortment. As the brand grew, it expanded sourcing to include skilled makers outside the U.S. where proximity to raw materials is good.
