Every great production has its stars—but it’s the people working behind the scenes who make the magic happen. That idea inspired our newest leisure bag range, Behind the Scenes: a trio of thoughtfully designed bags named after some of the most essential (and often unsung) roles on a film set.

This range is a quiet nod to craftsmanship, reliability, and adaptability— what Billingham is all about. 

The Naming Concept: Inspired by the Set

On a film or TV production, roles like Best Boy, Key Grip, and Dolly Grip are all about support, structure, and keeping things moving smoothly. These names felt like a natural fit for a leisure range designed to support your day, whatever the scene calls for.

Each bag in the Behind the Scenes range is sized and named to reflect the responsibility and function of its namesake.

MEET THE CAST...

The One That Carries It All

On set, the Best Boy is the right-hand person—organised, dependable, and always ready to step in. Our Best Boy Tote plays the same role in your daily routine.

Spacious, practical, and built to handle whatever you throw at it, this large tote is perfect for workdays, weekends, travel, or anywhere you need maximum carry with minimal fuss. If you need one bag to do it all, this is your Best Boy.

The Perfect Balance

The Key Grip oversees the technical setup, making sure everything is stable, balanced, and ready to perform. That sense of control and versatility defines the Key Grip handbag.

This medium-sized style hits the sweet spot: roomy enough for everyday essentials, structured enough to stay organised, and streamlined enough to move effortlessly from day to night. It’s the bag you reach for when you want flexibility without compromise.

Small, Agile, Essential

The Dolly Grip is responsible for smooth movement—precision, agility, and attention to detail. Our Dolly Grip handbag reflects that same mindset.

Compact and lightweight, this small handbag is designed for days when you only need the essentials and want to move freely. It’s understated, efficient, and quietly indispensable—proof that smaller roles can still have a big impact.

Designed for Everyday Performances

The Behind the Scenes range is about celebrating the details that often go unnoticed—the support systems, the practical choices, the pieces that make everything else work better.

Whether you’re carrying the Best Boy Tote, the Key Grip, or the Dolly Grip, each bag plays its part so you can focus on yours.

Because every great day, like every great production, needs a strong team behind it. 🎬
