CELINE Reinvents Summer Bags With Its New Basket Collection
A summer staple.
Hedi Slimane is back with a new CELINE collection capitalizing off of a micro-trend spotted recently: basket bags. The newest line features two bucket bags, a medium quilted piece, a medium basket and a raffia carry-all. Each of these options makes us think of warm weather, sand and bathing suits.
First up in the capsule is the bucket – a handmade piece crafted in Italy. This pick is woven from natural wicker with calfskin on the top handle. Next is the medium quilted bag constructed with a “C” charm and a chain with raffia. Also seen in the lineup is the medium basket, an option made with a traditional weaving technique and includes a wide leather panel. The range is rounded out by a raffia and leather clutch and a bucket-inspired bag. Both of these come with black leather detailing.
