Novella Royale is the culmination of two things; a considerate design ideology and the raw vision of its founder/designer, Mary Myers. Mary is a salt of the earth, third generation seamstress who cut her teeth designing accessories for larger fashion manufacturers. While grateful for the opportunities presented to her, she could not ignore the nagging desire to take charge of her own destiny. She decided to couple her reduce, re-use, recycle design philosophy with her fate and took the plunge, jumping headlong into the creation of her own brand which she named after her young daughter, Novella Royale.
