The House of INGA
A lineage,
hand stitched.
Two generations. One atelier. A story built one piece at a time.
01
A Portrait
Inga and Fiamma.
Designer and muse.
Twenty four years separate this photograph from the first INGA collection. What began as a private practice between a mother and a daughter has grown into a house, but the thread connecting them, built on trust, patience, and an eye for what makes a woman feel unstoppable, has never changed.
Inga's energy and zest for life is as vibrant as her designs. You want to bottle it up and sell it.

Chapter One
The designer.
Inga trained in fashion design in Barcelona and spent over two decades working across European ateliers before opening her own house. She learned early that beautiful things take time, and that a piece made with care carries something no copy ever will.
Today, every INGA piece she designs is still shaped and finished by her own hand, a discipline she taught herself as a child and has never set aside, even as the house has grown well beyond what either of them imagined.
Chapter Two
The muse.
Before INGA was a house of accessories, it was a children's line, and its very first model, at only two years old, was a girl named Fiamma.
Twenty four years later, the muse returned, this time as a partner. She brought with her a background steeped in craft and provenance, and together, they began building something entirely new, rooted in the same values that started it all.

A two year old inspires the line.

A Sunday feature that captured the moment a private passion became a public house. In the photograph, Fiamma, age two, wears a coat designed and finished just for her, the earliest record of a partnership neither of them could have predicted.
Chapter Three
The relaunch.
It began, as most INGA pieces do, with a request. Fiamma's partner Eddie, an EDM artist, needed something bold enough to match his presence on stage.
She said, "I'll just make it."
She built a blazer covered in safety pins and hand placed crystals for a performance at the Sphere. Afterward, she insisted Fiamma needed something to match the energy, so she made the first bag: edgy chains, signature pins, crystals placed one by one. The reaction was immediate, and that was the moment Fiamma understood they were making pieces that did not exist anywhere else.
The Craft
Never mass produced.
Every INGA piece is made to order in our Los Angeles atelier, cut, shaped, and finished entirely by hand, with Inga's own hands on every single one.
Made.
In a world built on instant and identical, we choose to build slowly and with intention. Every crystal is placed by hand, every detail considered, and every bag carries both the woman who made it and the woman who will wear it.
