Mendor Brody Gelin embodies the spirit of a modern renaissance entrepreneur, seamlessly blending the worlds of luxury fashion, winemaking, and entertainment. His portfolio spans from the sophisticated House of Gelin luxury handbags to the artisanal Gelin Rouge wines, each venture reflecting a distinctive vision for excellence and innovation. Today, we sit with the renaissance man himself to explore the intersection of his creative endeavors and the philosophy that drives his success across industries.
Your journey spans such diverse fields. How did it all begin?
You know, it’s interesting how life unfolds. I’ve always found myself drawn to different forms of creative expression – whether it’s crafting the perfect handbag or bringing a character to life on screen. Each venture really started from a genuine passion to create something meaningful.
Tell me about House of Gelin. What makes it special in today’s saturated luxury market?
House of Gelin isn’t just about making bags. Every stitch, every piece of leather we select, tells a story of Parisian craftsmanship meeting modern sensibility. We’re incredibly focused on sustainability and artisanal production – it’s not just luxury for luxury’s sake.
Your IMDb profile includes some impressive credits. How do you balance acting with running multiple businesses?
Every role I’ve had, even parts in productions like ‘House of Bodies’ and ‘Step Up Revolution,’ has taught me something valuable about connecting with audiences. The same principles apply whether you’re on screen or designing a product – it’s all about authentic expression and making that genuine connection.
Let’s talk about Gelin Rouge. What inspired you to enter the wine industry?
Wine, much like fashion, is about craftsmanship and patience. We’ve taken traditional winemaking methods but aren’t afraid to innovate. Every bottle represents both respect for terroir and openness to new possibilities.
With House of Gelin, Bella Di Bella swimwear, and your music as NewFLo Brody, what’s next on the horizon?
We’re actually in an incredibly exciting phase right now. There’s a new bag collection that I can’t wait to reveal – it’s perhaps our most innovative yet. We’re also releasing new wines, expanding our swimwear line, and yes, there’s new music coming too. It’s about constant evolution while maintaining the highest standards across every brand.
Gelin’s approach to his diverse portfolio reveals a deep understanding of both craftsmanship and innovation. His attention to detail defines his work across all ventures – whether crafting luxury accessories, producing wine, or performing on screen.
His perspective resonates with the same authenticity that characterizes his brands: “At the end of the day, it’s about creating experiences and products that truly mean something to people. That’s what drives me in everything I do.”
