OUR STORY

Who are we?

TRUZETTE was founded by me, Truus, and my aunt Mieke. Ever since I was little, I've loved crocheting and knitting my own scarves, gloves and bags. Last year, we conceived the idea of establishing our own small brand to create these items for others, as we were frequently asked about their origin. Now, through TRUZETTE, we can unleash our creativity by designing and experimenting with new ideas to bring joy to others with their own unique TRUZETTE pieces.

 

What do we want to create? 

Our biggest motivation was, and still is, to make others happy with custom-made bags and accessories. We love experimenting and trying out new ideas to continuously add a fresh style to our TRUZETTE family. It all began with our shoulder bags, and many more new items are on their way. The freedom to decide what we create and when we create it is crucial in maximizing the quality and comfort of our TRUZETTES.

 

Why the name TRUZETTE? 

The name TRUZETTE is a nickname given to me by my younger brother. The amusing part is that he never used it when I was present; instead, he used it when talking about me to someone else. Let's hope it wasn't used in a negative context... It took us a long time to find the perfect name. As cringy as it might sound, the moment TRUZETTE came to mind, we knew it was the one. We believe the name perfectly complements our designs and evokes the feeling we aim for in our brand.
