The Mulberry Kenrick Briefcase in Black Calfskin distills seven decades of British leather mastery into a single statement piece. Its structured silhouette echoes the brand's iconic mulberry bayswater bag, with clean lines softened by burnished brass hardware - a signature touch since the 1970s. The supple calfskin, vegetable-tanned to develop a unique patina, reveals Mulberry's commitment to slow luxury. Notice how the twin top handles mirror the ergonomic curves of their bestselling mulberry tote bag, ensuring comfort even when carrying ambitious workloads.
For power meetings, pair the Kenrick with a camel wool coat and sharp Chelsea boots, letting the briefcase anchor your authority. Transition to smart-casual Fridays by swapping tailored trousers for dark denim - the bag's minimalist hardware complements silver jewelry beautifully. Weekend explorers might layer it over a mulberry cross bag (worn diagonally for hands-free ease), creating unexpected texture play between structured and slouchy silhouettes. Pro tip: Use the detachable leather pouch inside as a clutch for after-work cocktails.
Since 1971, Mulberry has perfected the art of creating heirlooms that never fossilize. The Kenrick collection embodies this duality: traditional saddle stitching meets RFID-protected pockets, heritage leathers guard against modern pickpockets. Like the mulberry bayswater bag revolutionized workwear in 2003, this briefcase redefines corporate armor for the hybrid era - proving that true luxury lies not in chasing trends, but in evolving without erasure. As creative director Andras Alonso notes, "We don't reinvent wheels; we re-engineer them for new roads ahead."
