At the heart of Gabriele Frantzen lies a dedication to craftsmanship, quality, and timeless design. Known for her innovative accessories that seamlessly blend functionality with playful elegance, Gabriele creates statement pieces designed to evolve with the modern wardrobe. Her collection includes iconic belt bags, luxurious leather clutches, versatile phone bags, and hero pieces crafted from raffia and shearling—all designed to stand the test of time.
The Iconic Belt Bag & Signature Details
One of the brand’s most sought-after designs, the belt bag, showcases Gabriele’s ability to fuse style with versatility. With interchangeable straps and chains, this piece can be worn crossbody, over the shoulder, or as a classic belt bag, allowing endless styling possibilities. Many of her pieces feature the scarab motif, symbolizing rebirth and eternal life, reflecting the brand’s commitment to timeless reinvention.
A Legacy of Innovation & Style
Gabriele’s journey in fashion began in 2009 with a statement necklace—a piece she designed out of necessity when she couldn't find the perfect one. Dubbed "Sense and Sensibility," the necklace quickly caught the attention of Fern Mallis, the founder of NY Fashion Week, leading to a partnership with Saks Fifth Avenue. From gracing the pages of Vogue and Harper’s Bazaar to sparkling on the Oscars Red Carpet, Gabriele’s designs have captured the hearts of fashion icons like Leandra Medine, Olivia Palermo, and Giovanna Battaglia.
A Global Brand Rooted in Quality
Originally based in Munich, Gabriele started her career running the multi-brand store Frantzen & Frantzen, followed by the launch of her distribution agency, Best of 19, in 2003. Today, her eponymous label is carried by prestigious department stores, luxury boutiques, and hidden gems around the world. Each piece is crafted by expert artisans in Denmark, Germany, Italy, and Madagascar, ensuring the highest level of quality and artistry.
Introducing the “Perfect Beach Shirt”
In Summer 2024, Gabriele expanded her design vision into ready-to-wear with the launch of The Perfect Beach Shirt. Teaming up with Seidensticker, a family-owned brand known for its high-quality craftsmanship and contemporary design, this capsule collection embodies the same effortless sophistication found in her accessories.
More Than a Brand—A Fashion Family
For Gabriele Frantzen, fashion is about more than just accessories—it’s about connections, craftsmanship, and storytelling. She fosters relationships with her artisans and partners with the same care she hopes her customers feel when wearing her designs. Each piece is crafted to be more than just an accessory—it’s a timeless companion, blending style, function, and personal expression.
