LIFE STORY. Baroness Schwennicke (85), the top woman behind the success of handbag brand Delvaux: “I have never been ‘mundane’”

Baroness Solange Schwennicke (85) has passed away. Thanks to her, the Delvaux handbag brand grew into the international luxury brand it is today. When her husband died unexpectedly, she was suddenly alone at the head of his handbag workshop. “Now we are going to experience something: the boss’s wife is coming to interfere”, the leather workers said, but Solange immediately asserted himself. Her first surgery was immediately drastic. This is the life story of ‘Madame Delvaux’.
