For the House of Chanel, the most anticipated event of each season is the release of their handbag collection. The collection of 2019 is no different, drawing inspiration from ancient Egyptian visuals and New York’s urban landscape, featuring the intricate usage of gold and black tones and bold shapes evoking opulence and elegance. As one of the final collections imagined by the late Karl Lagerfeld, he made full usage of the team of artisans at Chanel Métier d’Art.
GABRIELLE SMALL HOBO BAG
Crocodile Embossed Calfskin, Gold-Tone & Silver-Tone Metal – Black
The original was already an iconic bag on its own, making it very scarce on the market. But we feel that this new version, featuring a thick strap adorned with the design house’s name in gold, is a definite must-have for this summer’s closet. Seems like a good problem to have!
GABRIELLE SMALL HOBO BAG
Tweed, Calfskin, Gold-Tone & Silver-Tone Metal – Gold, Blue & Green
In the same style, this season introduces multi-colored hues in tweed on a gold backdrop, enhancing its Egyptian allure.
GABRIELLE SMALL HOBO BAG
Cotton, Calfskin, Gold-Tone & Silver-Tone Metal – Black & Gold
Or how about black and gold? The statement is less bold, but equally outstanding.
