23 years ago, I launched JAMAH.
My mission quickly became to build the first American luxury, Made in the USA bespoke handbag brand.
I dreamt of a brand that would be spoken about in the same breath as Hermes, Chanel and the ubiquitous fashion houses.
I wanted to bring luxury manufacturing back to the USA. Growing up in Detroit, I witnessed the value of American craftsmanship and was bothered by the lack of true American luxury design. I wondered why, with such superior talent in the US, the world was only enamored with the allure and sophistication of European fashion houses.
I wanted my bags to be featured between the covers of Vogue and other top luxury publications around the world.
I wanted my bags to be carried by the likes of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
When I shared my dreams, I was met with rolled eyes and declarations that there will never be another Hermes. People argued that no one would ever care about luxury Made in the USA.
But nobody talks about the years it took for the big fashion houses to gain worldwide popularity. I knew that luxury is not a business of overnight success. Luxury takes time. Luxury takes grit. Luxury takes perseverance.
At long last - after almost a quarter of a century - my perseverance is paying off!
Every JAMAH bag is made-to-order by artisans at our studio in downtown Los Angeles.
Not only has JAMAH been written up in Vogue, but over two decades later, we have had the honor of being featured in the esteemed Robb Report, Modern Luxury and Upscale Living, where we were named a Top 10 Fashion Classic (right next to the famed Hermes Birkin Bag)!
Brad and Angelina bought nine bags. Channing Tatum, Jessica Alba and Carrie Underwood are among countless other celebrities seen carrying JAMAH.
In honor of the Chinese New Year, and following in the footsteps of Hermes, The Bank of China chose JAMAH as the coveted gift for their eight highest net worth account holders. I was even commissioned to design a collection for former president Bill Clinton, Hillary and Chelsea, which I presented to the president himself.
After almost a quarter of a century, JAMAH is on fire with the 2022 launch of the groundbreaking JAMAH Motorcar Collection taking the industry by storm.
That is the beauty of pursuing your passion - of persevering - and perhaps being a little bit insane. Every dream becomes an achievable task.
