About Us
Femme Ani celebrates everyday elegance, honouring women who carry themselves with quiet strength and timeless style.
It began with a feeling. The kind you get when something fits perfectly — not just your outfit, but your mood, energy, and day.
Our founder searched for high-quality leather handbags that felt refined, feminine, and enduring — without the ostentation of branding or the compromises of fast fashion. She wanted pieces that were truly wearable: modern in design, timeless in spirit, and crafted with care.
When she couldn’t find the right blend of quality and soul, she created it.
Femme Ani was born in the Netherlands, shaped by a desire for timeless pieces with soul. Each bag is crafted in small batches from real leather in a trusted factory that meets the highest standards. Our focus is on enduring quality, graceful lines, and subtle details that feel just right — never loud or temporary.
The Meaning Behind the Name
The name Femme Ani carries meaning across languages and cultures.
- Femme, the French word for woman, reflects a soft yet strong feminine presence.
- Ani means "I" or "me" in Hebrew — a quiet affirmation of identity.
- In Slavic and Sanskrit traditions, Ani is associated with beauty, grace, and adornment.
- In Armenian, Ani is also the name of an ancient city, a lasting symbol of cultural richness and resilience.
Together, these words form a name that whispers:
"I am woman. I am grace. I am me.”
Femme Ani is for women who know that true style isn't about excess; it's about feeling confident in your own skin.
The most powerful thing you can wear is something that makes you feel more like yourself — only more radiant.
