Emre is the new hottest Turkish American artist and designer. Emre is not just about bags either. It's an attitude. Emre says "an attitude of confidence, prosperity, freedom and love"

Style in the 21st century is often trend-based but genuine style is something that has that bit of what the French call je ne sais quoior "elan vital" that special touch that can never quite be defined but that everyone remembers long after a woman has left a room.

It's precisely this type of style that makes Emre - one of New York's prestigious designer.
