A true Italian with a passion for fashion, Claudia Griffiths came of age in her grandfather’s textile store in the south of Italy. As a very young girl she was surrounded by an array of colorful shimmering fabrics and was fascinated by the bountiful spectrum of silks and velvets. Always influenced by the images of her childhood, Claudia brought them to life in her line of unique accessories, inspired by a by-gone era where workmanship was extraordinary and ‘hand-made’ was the only way. Claudia brings us right back to that time in the craftsmanship, design and quality of her accessories.

Claudia moved to New York from London in 1998 where she landed her first job in the Garment District. In May 2007 she moved to Las Vegas with her husband and two children and founded Claudia’s Bowtique, Inc. which includes a colorful children’s line as well as a ladies line using Swarovski Crystals, feathers and buttons. According to Claudia ‘attention to detail is a must.’ Her French barrettes, headbands and clips are hand sewn and no two pieces are alike.

In August 2009, Claudia unveiled a vintage-inspired bridal line reminiscent of the 20’s and 30’s.
