Who would have imagined that more than 27 years ago a friendship and simple idea would grow to be the company Vera Bradley is today? Many events have worked in our favor. Having a great idea at the right time. Having a good name – after Barbara Bradley Baekgaard's mother – and having many friends who helped launch what has become an American dream.
Thank you – your support continues to inspire us.

Guided by our founders, Patricia R. Miller and Barbara Bradley Baekgaard, Vera Bradley has earned a reputation as a leader in the gift industry. Creating stylish quilted cotton luggage, handbags and accessories, the company combines smart product designs with distinctive and colorful fabrics and trims.
The Vera Bradley story is a testimony to the American Dream.
While on vacation in March of 1982, Patricia and Barbara were awaiting a flight in Atlanta when they noticed a definite lack of feminine-looking luggage. The longtime friends wasted no time in correcting this situation. Within weeks, these dynamic women had created a company, named after Barbara's mother, capable of marketing and manufacturing their cleverly designed products. The demand for these unique handbags and luggage items has grown and so has Vera Bradley, which is now nationally and internationally recognized.
