Hillsdale-resident exhibits her unique and distinctive bags
Carol S. Miller, a handbag designer and manufacturer and resident of Hillsdale, designs soft, plush, and functional leather and Southwest-style wool handbags with real women and everyday life in mind. Each bag is proudly made in the USA in small factories in New Jersey and Brooklyn, NY.
Carol’s handbag business evolved from her career in the NY fashion industry. “[That career] allowed me to travel for years to the fashion capitals of the world for my work. And while I adore all things fashion, my first love has always been handbags,” says Carol.
On exhibit in the library’s lobby display cases is a sampling of Carol’s stunning and functional designs, which use hand-picked materials that ensure lasting quality. “I love all the shapes, sizes, colors and materials that make up every bag, and how each can be tailored to create a specific look,” explains Carol. “What most of us want in a handbag is security, ease of use, and of course, beauty.”
Also on display are jewelry from the Southwest and hand-painted glassware sourced by Carol’s business.
