A few more:

Julien MacDonald,
Matthew Williamson (although, he now shows in NY),
Clements Ribeiro (they haven't shown for a while, but I hope they'll be back soon),
Stella McCartney,
Jimmy Choo,
Burberry (Chirstopher Bailey),
Frost French,
John Rocha,
Zandra Rhodes,
Luella Bartley (also shows in NY),
John Galliano (shows in Paris).
 
The only UK designed handbags that have really caught my eye are the range from Xude.
XUDE HANDBAGS
MORE XUDE HANDBAGS

I was going to buy the Xude bag in the pic below, for £100, but managed to snare a Kooba Bonnie for £20 more....no contest really. But overall I do like Xudes stuff....and some of Tommy and Kates bags are nice too. :yes:

I picked up a really cute tote from Suzie Smith last time I was in the UK (5 years ago). I'm hoping for another such under the radar find when I'm in London this summer.

This is a great thread since I'm planning to stay away from the big British designers that are easily available here in the States.

I still really want a Mulberry though. Does anyone know, if there are some styles you can find in the UK stores that aren't sold in the US?
