A major recent news in the fashion world is Chanel’s Creative Director Virginie Viard announcing her departure.
As Karl Lagerfeld’s trusted successor, Virginie has been with Chanel for five years. During her tenure, she created iconic bags like the 22 and revamped the classic 31. Now, everyone is speculating who will take over this top luxury brand’s design helm. Celine’s Hedi Slimane is a top contender. The new designer must match Chanel’s rapid release schedule, with ten new collections each year, including four seasonal collections, beach, and ski series. The latest release is the 23/24 Métiers d’Art collection.
Bottega Veneta Andiamo Parachute
First on my list is the fresh and lovely Parachute bucket bag from BV’s early fall collection. Actress Shu Qi carried it to the launch event. The small Parachute bag is a square box with asymmetrical sides, resembling an upside-down parachute. The entire bag uses a single piece of leather and features the brand’s signature weaving. The drawstring is reminiscent of parachute cords, and the iconic metal twist accent adorns one shoulder strap. The bucket shape doesn’t have a zipper but has corners that close to prevent items from falling out. I love the “Oasis Blue” color—very summery.
Parachute comes in two sizes. The small one has a detachable shoulder strap, while the larger one is more like a tote with a zippered inner pocket. Both are lightweight, thanks to the all-lambskin construction. The small size is priced at 29,900 yuan, and the large one at 44,900 yuan.
Let’s Go Andiamo
In Italian, Andiamo means “Let’s Go.” This early fall collection features a bag named Let’s Go, similar to the Loop but with a pencil bag shape. Unlike the Loop, which has handles on both sides and can be worn crossbody, Let’s Go is a basic shoulder bag. This underarm bag is flattering for all body types, featuring all-over weaving. It comes in one size with three color options, including a soft “Sea Salt Yellow.” The price is 22,900 yuan.
Solstice
The early fall collection also includes the unique Solstice bag. Though there are woven options, the series primarily showcases smooth saddle leather. The standout features are the metal twist closures on both sides. The bottom half-moon design is reminiscent of a saddlebag but with a sleek architectural aesthetic. BV often surprises with distinctive bags. The triangular side panels allow for color-blocking designs and seasonal variations. Solstice comes in three sizes: mini, small, and medium. The mini woven version is priced at 19,900 yuan on the domestic website.
