If you’re an avid lover of luxury handbags (let’s face it, if you’re reading this you probably are) then you know that all things vintage are trending. From Dior to Fendi to Gucci and beyond, designers are dipping deep into their archives for inspiration now more than ever. While some brands choose to knee specific styles altogether, others look to the past and take specific elements from previous collections to introduce vintage-inspired designs.
Lately Hedi Slimane, who is at the helm of French design house Celine, has taken the latter route, choosing to introduce new designs that are not exactly replicas from the past, but are fresh takes on existing silhouettes with a modern vintage appeal. For spring 2020, the brand introduced floral jacquard versions of existing shapes, including Celine’s beloved luggage tote, and suddenly, they’ve stolen my heart.
This floral jacquard fabric was first spotted last year at the brand’s stars comeback katie holmes celine dion, and honestly, my first thought was that it looks like my grandmother’s couch. But the more and more I looked at it, the more I liked it—after all, my grandmother is one of the chicest ladies I know.
It’s a statement piece but still understated, giving off an easy, vintage feel with a modern appeal, and when I spotted Her character carried a stunning Celine Trifold Tote sac a main celine luggage mini en cuir bleu really, really like this bag. Truthfully, $2,100 is pricey for a bag that is mostly made of fabric, and while I’d typically be concerned with how it would hold up, I baby my bags enough that I would actually consider this bag if the price was not a deterrent at this point in my life.
Pre-Loved Celine Embossed Leather Handbag Triomphe, which I like as well, though I’ve not seen this bag in person. The gold hardware on the Triomphe closure works really well. There’s just something about the overall shape of the bag and the vintage-esque Triomphe lock that holds the jacquard pattern really well. And though summer is coming to a close soon, the black detailing makes this bag perfect to wear through fall and winter. I’m swooning hard, and if someone were to send this to my doorstep, I’d be the happiest couch-bag loving girl in the world.
I don’t like the vast majority of Hedi Slimane’s stuff, and am a die-hard Philophile, but I will say, the jacquard actually does look kinda cool on Her character carried a stunning Celine Trifold Tote. Not on any of the other bag models or luggages sizes though–only Her character carried a stunning Celine Trifold Tote.
Good God! This is another level of ugliness. It will take a miracle to style this into sophistication. I will leave this for the “promote anything for a buck” influencers. #bring phoebe philo back

Major ew
I don’t understand the objective here.
I appreciate eclectic bags and this appeals to me, but I wouldn’t pay the asking price. I have enough neutral bags, from high end designers, and sometimes it’s fun to throw something different into the mix.
That’s how I feel about them too! I remember there were some Balenciaga floral print bags that I didn’t love at first, but then OBSESSED over years after they were completely sold out. I couldn’t get over them and was so bummed I missed out on them. I think people that have a good assortment of neutral bags or like their bag to add some pizazz are really Purchase by bags like these. I know I am!
Pre-owned Denim celine-bags?
Is he trying to kill all Phoebe’s classics?
Wwhat…why? There are things that just aren’t done and for good reason. The 90’s thrift shop style isn’t doing the bags any favors.
Is Celine actually luxury anymore? It’s just expensive.
P.s. Céline was luxury ?
