HEMISPHERE SUD, THE MODERN TAKE ON THE EVERYDAY ACCESSORY
HÉMISPHÈRE SUD settles in Paris.
After 30 years of success with a clientele drawn to long journeys toward tropical lagoons — and encouraged by them — the brand has decided to establish itself in France, the homeland of its founders, while intensifying its research to offer even greater comfort in daily life and travel.
Still driven by its founder, Anne-Christine LÉVIGNE, Hémisphère Sud brings immense creativity and a distinctly feminine sense of practical aesthetics to those essential yet often ill-adapted accessories of modern life — handbags, backpacks, luggage, and personal items.
HÉMISPHÈRE SUD–Paris is here to revolutionize how we use our accessories and adapt them to our lives.
The DNA of the brand
At HÉMISPHÈRE SUD, you will never find a bag that just serves as a container, nor a wallet that is solely a pouch for cash and credit cards.
Each model bearing the Hémisphère Sud name has been carefully thought through, designed, and conceptualized to meet every possible use we can expect in the 21st century — while also taking into account the space it occupies and the limited room in our closets and wardrobes.
That’s why all our creations are polymorphic, adaptable, transformable, compressible, and expandable — always ready to be the companion you need at every stage of your day.
It will be spacious and highly organized when in use, and tiny — lying completely flat or rolled into a leather tube — when you need to store it. And always aesthetic, refined, and chic.
Our Signature Piece: The Transformable Bag
HÉMISPHÈRE SUD has focused its research on three key design concepts:
The Fluence Concept –
A collection in which all our bags—designed for both men and women—are highly sophisticated and offer a range of exclusive comfort features: internal lighting, multiple dedicated pouches, integrated phone charging systems, and other thoughtful additions you won’t want to live without.
And yet, with just a few simple gestures, each of these bags folds completely flat—ready to slip into a suitcase or stack neatly on a closet shelf.
The Eclipse Concept –
A line in which every creation is designed with at least two distinct uses—if not more.
The Carquois Concept –
An original line made up of ultra-light bags, from mini formats to suitcase sizes. Each bag unfolds in five quick steps to reveal a surprisingly spacious interior—but just as easily condenses into a beautiful leather tube that takes up minimal space in your luggage or on a shelf.

A Brand with a Unique Design Approach
This revolutionary adaptability to your needs is matched by another key strength:
each bag, each item is meticulously crafted in our workshops, under our close supervision, showcasing a rare level of hand assembly and finishing.
Each piece will be numbered and fully traceable.
One last signature extravagance: our pricing policy.
Our creations undoubtedly meet the standards of haute couture and true luxury.
But not our prices… We’ve chosen a pricing policy that is reasonable and accessible — and you’ll see it for yourself. However, our products will remain rare, because they are time-consuming to produce, and only exceptional artisans are able to craft them.
We insist on maintaining strict control over each piece we sign. We hope our clients will understand this level of care — and be willing to wait for a piece made especially for them.
