About Us

Mr. Marvin Li

MES’s founder and creative director Marvin Li hails from an industrial design background. In 2015, Marvin decided to change gears and turn her energy towards MES, a collection of exceptional fashion items. Focusing on quality material, good design, craftsmanship and sustainability, MES reflects the epitome of quality over quantity.

Marvin was highly inspired by the Bauhaus Movement's artists and architects. From Mies van der Rohe's works to Kandinsky's paintings, to Aalto's furniture, he acquired a rationalist vision of design by gleaning how they served a utilitarian purpose in a cleverly simple way. MES merges industrial design and fashion, creating functional handbags made of luxurious and honest materials to improve people's lives in small but important ways.

Innovation being the key factor alongside aesthetic, MES has brought unexpected shapes with smart details, functionality and a new luxury feel with a contemporary price point.

New York is where Marvin was born, the company's headquarters is now split between the US, Canada, Australia, United Kingdom and Hong Kong.
