About Us
MZ Wallace is an independent, women-led company launched in New York City in 2000 by Monica Zwirner and Lucy Wallace Eustice. Their collaborative vision is informed by their backgrounds in fashion, design and contemporary art. Their aim from the start was to combine smart, solution- driven design with timeless style to create bags that work for dynamic lives. MZ Wallace bags offer sophistication through both heritage and seasonal collections, and solution-driven style through innovative details, like lightweight, sustainable materials and pockets that are just where you need them. Today Monica and Lucy remain true to their founding philosophy-great design propels dynamic lives.
At MZ Wallace, we're always working on ways to innovate in how we design and produce our products. Sustainability and good citizenship govern everything we do and we continue to look for new solutions to reduce our carbon footprint. One hundred percent of our signature fabrics are made from fully recycled fibers. We are proud of being awarded B Corporation certification, which means we achieved the highest standards for social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability across our entire operation, in a way that benefits our customers, our employees, our communities, and our planet.
Our Company culture is grounded in our core values of excellence, learning, responsibility, teamwork, inclusion, and fun. They guide us in creating an environment that fosters the kinds of individual and collective accomplishment essential to creating exceptional products for our customers.
