The Istanbul based luxury handbag brand Misela was founded in 2008 in New York by Serra Turker, a Rhode Island School of Design graduate. Turker mastered her Textiles design skills through exploring her cultural heritage and created an unique world of accessories that blends the taste of the West with the feel of the East. This eclectic brand known for its bold prints and colorful combinations is inspired by the global woman who cherishes timeless designs that accompany her through her journey.
Inspired by the vast history of Istanbul, Misela’s first boutique opened in 2012 in Pera, one of the most historic neighborhoods of the city. The boutique is the place to explore the colorful world of Misela and to experience its timeless journey. The in-house produced accessory brand found its second home in 2014 with the opening of the Palmarina boutique, in Bodrum and expanded its outreach to both the locals and the visitors from all over the world.

As her expertise grows, she has the desire to be closer to the designers and lead a special adventure.
