Walter Baker is not your typical designer. A CPA, businessman, finance executive, husband and dad, Walter Baker designed and launched his eponymous New York label three decades ago. Featuring smartly edgy, sexy, boldly imagined, luxuriously constructed ready-to-wear and accessories with a distinctive New York mover-and-shaker vibe, Walter Baker looks were soon flying off shelves and racks at premier retailers around the world, including Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdale’s, Nordstrom, Anthropologie and more.
The core of Baker’s philosophy is a constant: trend-driving style, quality and top-shelf luxury at an approachable price point. “We’re a proudly modern contemporary label with a designer sensibility,” says Baker.
Walter Baker fine leather outerwear, stunning handbags and chic everyday apparel blend sophistication and contemporary aesthetics, creating pieces that resonate with an exceptionally diverse style-minded clientele.
Walter Baker works exclusively with factories and tanneries that abide by ethical practices, health and safety standards, pay fair wages and support workers’ rights. The brand cuts in order to minimize waste and decrease environmental impact. Walter Baker leather is produced with a minimum of water consumption and employs innovative eco-friendly processes such as chrome-free and vegetable tanning.
The brand’s cosmopolitan, well-constructed, impeccably designed and intelligently edgy looks continue to set the New York modern contemporary style and quality standard. walterbaker.com
