After Bottega Veneta, Stuart Vevers joined British luxury brand Mulberry as their creative director in 2005. In addition to leather goods like the Roxanne and the Bayswater handbags, which have become covetable fashion classics, they also produce menswear, womenswear, and footwear for women.

Loewe

On 26 July 2007, it was announced that Vevers would be leaving Mulberry to replace Jose Enrique Ona Selfa as creative director at Loewe. The new appointment has Vevers based in Madrid full-time since he took up the position in January 2007. "Stuart fits the profile perfectly of what we wanted", Pierre-Yves Roussel, chief executive officer of the fashion division at LVMH – which owns Loewe – told WWD. "We have been making operational changes at the brand recently. Now we want to emphasize Loewe's strong point – leather goods – with someone who can make desirable handbags." "I've loved working with Stuart, who is a great designer", says Lisa Montague, Mulberry's chief operating officer. "He has built a strong team, bringing a wealth of talent to the brand and the search is now on to find a suitable successor to take Mulberry to the next level." That successor would be Emma Hill, who has worked on accessories for many of the world's top brands, including Gap, Chloé and Marc Jacobs.
