ABOUT SARA DESIGNS
New York-based designer Sara Bar is a creator who cannot hold back her creativity. Celebrating over 25 years of couture craftsmanship—spanning from celebrated physical retail spaces in New York City to an iconic global presence—the SARA DESIGNS brand has evolved into a premier house for exquisite, hand-set crystal evening bags, luxury clutches, and high-end swimwear.
Sara’s worldly inspiration has long been fueled by a desire to travel and embrace different cultures, a passion that began during her childhood trips to Paris every summer. Surrounded by the couture craftsmanship of Parisian women, she developed an early eye for high-quality materials and tailored designs. These sensibilities were sharpened during her studies at design school, where she graduated with honors. Following graduation, Sara embarked on a momentous year-long journey across the globe, acquiring the rare materials that would form her very first collection.
Today, Sara still gathers inspiration and premium materials during her world travels. Whether sourcing the highest-grade, light-catching crystals for her luxury evening bags or perfecting the impeccable fit of her newly launched bikini collection, every piece is designed to turn heads and redefine timeless elegance.
Over the last two decades, the collection has been featured around the world at prestigious retailers like Bloomingdale's, Harvey Nichols, Nordstrom, Anthropologie, Free People, Shopbop, and Cadenzza/Swarovski. As SARA DESIGNS continues to grow, it remains entirely unrestrained in its creativity, proud of its 25-year New York heritage, and dedicated to modern resort luxury.
