Handbag Designer Patricia Nash Connects with Fans, Signs Bags, and Honors Her North Dakota Roots at Von Maur's Newest Location

FARGO, N.D., April 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Patricia Nash, founder and designer of Patricia Nash Designs (https://patricianashdesigns.com/), joined the celebration of Von Maur's (https://www.vonmaur.com/) newest store opening in Fargo, North Dakota, this past weekend. Von Maur, renowned for its exceptional shopping experience, opened its 34th store, bringing their unique selection of high-quality merchandise to the community. Known for her vintage-inspired leather handbags and timeless craftsmanship, Patricia's special appearance was the perfect way to celebrate both Von Maur's grand opening and the 15th anniversary of Patricia Nash Designs.

Since launching her brand in 2010, Patricia has cultivated a devoted following for her heirloom-quality pieces, each inspired by travel, heritage, and vintage designs. At the Von Maur event, Patricia personally greeted shoppers, shared the stories behind her designs, and signed bags for longtime fans. To commemorate this exciting milestone, she also celebrated her own brand's 15th anniversary with an exclusive Gift with Purchase: a limited-edition anniversary key fob and leather journal with any Patricia Nash purchase of $200 or more.

"Coming back to North Dakota always feels special to me – it's where so much of my family is," shared Patricia Nash, Founder and CEO of Patricia Nash Designs. "Being here for the opening of Von Maur's gorgeous new store is a real joy. This year is extra meaningful for us as we celebrate our 15th anniversary, so to be part of such an exciting milestone for Von Maur while continuing our own anniversary celebrations just made the day even more memorable. Connecting with the women who carry our bags reminds me exactly why I started this brand. It's always been about creating pieces that connect us through shared moments and memories."

The day also featured a special giveaway: guests could enter to win the Santorini Specialty Woven Satchel ($299), one of Patricia Nash's most beloved statement bags. Perfect for warmer weather, the Santorini is a truly covetable, roomy satchel crafted from paper straw with leather trim. In signature Patricia Nash fashion, this bag combines elegance with practicality. The versatile design allows you to change the shape of its profile using the side snaps, creating either a square silhouette or a more drawn-in look at the sides.

Patricia Nash's personal connection to her designs and the fans who love them makes every interaction special, and this grand opening was no exception. As she continues to celebrate her 15th anniversary, Patricia remains focused on creating bags that tell stories, capture memories, and, most importantly, connect people.
