As if traveling wasn’t fun enough to begin with, fashion has gone and found a way to make it even better: Nancy Gonzalez luggage.
Launching yesterday exclusively at Bergdorf Goodman in New York City, Gonzalez now makes a line of suitcases and small travel accessories in her company’s signature crocodile skins. Manufactured to be excellent lightweight luggage in addition to being utterly luxurious, the collection includes items all the way from passport holders to iPad cases to rolling suitcases, priced between $400 and $8000. We have a preview of some of the collection’s pieces, after the jump.

Vanity luggage is bizarre to me. I can understand the concept, but why make it more appealing to thieves? Perhaps smaller pieces that wouldn’t change hands – but I still wouldn’t like to risk it. That said, the luggage here IS beautiful.
A little clarification about the skin. Technically, it is not crocodile, but Caiman (Latin: caiman fuscus). Quality-wise, it is not as pliable as alligator, or African crocodiles (Nile, New Guinea), or crocodile Porosus. Thus, large luggage pieces won’t take wear abuse well. Yes, they’re pretty, but not practical, especially for the price. All that said, I love Nancy Gonzalez Spring 2011 handbag collection. Very festive!

Gorgeous, but so likely to get stolen or damaged!
I would only take those suitcases on my private jet. 😉

I try to keep a low profile when I am traveling. Why draw so much attention and make yourself a magnet for thieves? Not to mention they way they toss luggage. They are beautiful but does not make sense to me.
tooo pretty for luggage that will get banged around! i’ll just invest in a pretty bag (ipad)
Gorgeous!! (ipad)
soooooooooooooooooooo cute!!!! (ipad)
It’s stunning, but when I travel, I want something that I don’t mind getting damaged or lost and this doesn’t qualify 🙁 (ipad)
LOVING the colors of the passport holders! amazing! (ipad)
Not feeling those colors. (ipad)
I love the colors..but too expensive. (ipad)
Beautiful, if only I had a private jet where I knew that it wouldn’t be stolen or scuffed. (ipad)
would be perfect for my new ipad…wink wink (ipad)
i love the colors (ipad)

Love the colors! The ipad cases are perfect ;D (ipad)
Love those colors! (ipad)
Love the orange one! (ipad)
too stressful owning high end luggage. unless i’m super rich and Fed Ex these babies, i wouldn’t dare! (ipad)
Beautiful colors – love the combination – they go so well together. (ipad)
The aqua ipad case is so pretty! (ipad)
I agree that it is bizarre to own beautiful, expensive luggage unless you have a private jet. The ipad cases are beautiful, but I wouldn’t spend so much money on those either. (ipad)
Whats the point of designer luggage unless you travel by a private jet ? They toss the bags without a care at the airport …..
….. but i love the ipad cases. Such beautiful colors and in croc! … One time i wouldn’t mind paying more for accessories that the gadget (ipad)
i want the pink one (ipad)
perfect for traveling! (ipad)
the teal color is cute too (ipad)
Very pretty, but totally impractical. They’ll get wrecked! I never understood how someone could actually use “luxury” suitcases, like LV’s luggage. I’d be terrified that they’d get ruined or worse, stolen, with everything inside too!
