The Michique Story

Monique and Michelle are twin sisters, born in beautiful Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada. The rustic coastlines and friendly people have kept them there most of their lives. Growing up, they usually weren't addressed by their correct names. Friends were confused as to which one they were speaking to. They would just call out "Michnelle, Michnique", and both of them would turn. Something great had to come from the confusion! Combined, they have 40 years of textile experience. For many years they have created high-end custom draperies, however, their passion for handbags can be clearly seen. In the past six years, their Michique Brand is being noticed internationally.

Of course, no one ever finds success on their own. Their husbands James & Ron play a huge role, as well as their mother Yvonne and kind friends. Michelle has a beautiful daughter, Thea, who at five years old was already designing handbags for "mommy and meekee" to produce as a new collection. We invite you to experience our many years of family teamwork, all wrapped up in a beautiful package....
