Celine Bags

A Celine bag embodies Paris, with subtle nods to the city's architecture and history sewn into every seam and rivet. Born out of the ashes of post-war France, the brand has transitioned from children's shoes to leather goods to a fashion giant as we know it today. Every Celine handbag benefits from the influence of an era and represents the artistic vision of the house's diverse set of creative directors, making each Celine purse part of the designer's ongoing narrative.

More about Celine Bags

The artistic choices incorporated into each Celine purse over the years can be traced to various aspects and periods in the history of Paris, giving each piece a charm that transcends the material aspect of the bag and connects the wearer to the city's magic. The signature Macadam canvas pattern drew its inspiration from an old name for pavés, referring to the city's cobblestones and modeling a similar motif. This is the fabric of choice for a vintage Celine handbag, with a coated water resistant finish that protects the piece with an alluring shine. The double "C" logo created by Celine in the 1970s draws inspiration from the chains surrounding the Arc de Triomphe, and can be found featured on the Sulky canvas. The logo is also the focal point of the Triomphe bag in the form of a gorgeous metallic closure that sets the compact Celine handbag apart from similar models.

A vintage Celine bag comes in many shapes and sizes. The classic Macadam is a hit in any form, but looks especially chic when constructed in a bowling bag model and embellished with contrasting leather straps. Both the Poulbot and the Boogie bag made their mark under Michael Kors, remaining classic examples of the quintessential Celine bag since their creation. The Poulbot Celine purse is crafted from soft suede and has relaxed styling with rivets dotting the seams in an homage to the street urchins of Paris. The Boogie bag shows the versatility of a Celine handbag, using different types of leather and cloth in a rainbow of colors to create a seemingly infinite number of combinations. 

There is so much to love about a Celine purse, from the influential minds behind its conception to the material and construction that ensures the flawless execution of every detail. The same house has shown expertise in every style from laid back bohemianism to clean minimalism to polished elegance. This capacity to transform and reinvent itself makes Celine the evergreen fashion great, giving each Celine bag relevance and poise no matter when it is worn.
