Fashion gloves online
The Dutch designer Ines van den Born has designed a range of fashionable gloves. Her new collection goes by the name "Les Gants d'Ines" or "Ines Gloves". The gloves are made of luxurious full-grain lamb skin leather in slim, fitted styles. Names such as "My Warm Brocade Gloves" and "My Warm Happy Laces Gloves" accentuate the luxury and comfort of the gloves and add a seductive touch. Van den Born was inspired by Audrey Hepburn, whose so-called glacé became her trademark.
After years of obscurity, Van den Born aims to bring the Glacé back into style. Her new website offers the opportunity to shop online. A live online customer service option allows the visitor to chose the correct style and size. Due to the international popularity of the gloves, the site has been designed in English.

GLOVE IS THE DRUG!
After years of searching and not finding, Agent Anonym started to make her own gloves. The response to her own-brand hand fashion was so positive, that in October 2001 she opened her very own glove shop at www.glovedup.com. The gloves on www.glovedup.com aren't designed to keep your hands warm, they're sexy, contemporary and a little bit out of the ordinary; the ideal potion for fashion addicts.
The star model in the GLOVEDUP glove shop is the original Pwachu fingerless glove, made in stretch fabric and hand-painted by Agent Anonym in Amsterdam. Alongside Pwachu, you'll find the Dutch Collection Limited Edition Gloves. Each model is hand-made by Agent Anonym in very small numbers. Diverse stretch fabrics, leather and trimmings are used for the limited edition gloves, and each pair is finished with a Sterling silver bead chain and Dutch charm. The gloves are priced at between 35 Euro for Pwachu and 55 Euro for the limited edition models, and shipped free-of-charge to anywhere in the world from the GLOVEDUP online glove shop.
Agent Anonym was established this year by Amsterdam based, 30 year old Brit
Laura Shepherd. Agent Anonym's mission is to go against the mass market global
fashion rules. The objective is to be creative, and not to make a fast buck.
Agent Anonym is self-funding and has no investors, to ensure that the business
stays small, innovative and free from third-party constraints.
