Kate Spade Kate Spade, dead at age 55 of an apparent suicide

May her Rest In Peace. I read her interview years ago while she just started her brands and it was all the rage back then. She’s a very admirable in the attitude that she had. I like her simple but classy design.

So sad. Kate Spade was one of the reasons I fell in love with designer bags. May she rest in peace.

This is terrible news. May she RIP. I read she has a 13 year old daughter.

I like her totes. Very durable.

She sold her entire label in 2006. So she wouldn't have seen a penny of all the sales these days. I think Coach bought the brand just last year for billions. Odd to have your name on products every day that you have no ownership of. So sad.

So sad, remembered when she first came out with the nylon box looking purse around ‘95 and it was such a hit. Sad to know that she passed away —- by hanging with a scarf on a door handle. I can’t imagine the choking and pain. Reminds me of that designer that passed away also years ago.
