This bag is a Philo design but is also modern and fits the new Celine style.
Minimalist, elegant and classic, you can’t do better than the Celine Box!
2. Celine Triomphe
This is the perfect everyday crossbody bag. The Celine Triomphe bag was designed by Hedi Slimane in 2018 and it bears the Celine logo designed by Celine Vipiana herself. In 1973, Vipiana introduced a newly designed logo that featured an intertwined double C design, with an intricate center pattern that nodded to the architecture of the Arc de Triomphe. The bag has become a classic and its understated and minimalistic look is a perfect representation of the Celine style.
This is a popular bag, but not so much as the Gucci or Louis Vuitton ones we see around, it is an amazing style you won’t regret buying!
3. Celine Luggage
One of the most popular bags of all time and the most famous Celine bag, the Luggage is an icon. It was Phoebe Philo’s first It bag for the brand, released in the Spring 2010 collection. With its distinctive front face adorned with a zipper and availability in multiple colors and materials, it is not hard to see why the Celine Luggage, even after a decade of its launch, still appeals to fashion connoisseurs of all ages and tastes. This bag was extremely popular in the 2010’s and because of it’s minimalist style and colors, it really would be a staple in your collection.
I know this bag is not so popular anymore and some might say it is out of fashion, but as Yves Saint Laurent said: “fashion fades, style is eternal”. And this is an eternal bag.
4. Celine Belt Bag
Designed by the queen of minimalism herself Phoebe Phillo, this is one of the best minimalist bags ever designed! Launched in Celine’s Pre-Fall 2014 collection this bag is casual and refined at the same time. This bag is so versatile you can easily wear it from work to a night out. The bag is characterized by a belt with knots on both ends and the front flap is made to be tucked under it. The relaxed shape and the spacious interior add their unique touch to the complete design, it also has a top handle and a shoulder strap. This bag is not so popular anymore but that does not mean it is out of style!
This is a minimalist bag that will go with every piece of clothing you own, so if you like the Old Celine style this bag might be the one for you!
5. Celine Trapeze
Designed by Phoebe Philo in 2010, this is one of the Old Celine’s most important bags! It was extremely popular throughout the 2010’s and was one of the most copied styles in the history of designer handbags. With wings like the luggage, a flap closure and a top handle this bag is the perfect representation of the Celine style! This bag is spacious, sophisticated and beautiful, and it came in different sizes, from large to mini. This bag is not currently available in Celine’s offerings, but you can still find it in the resale market.
If you have one of these bags, my advice is hold on to it, because it is an iconic style of the old Celine!
6. Celine 16
The first bag designed by Hedi Slimane, the Celine 16 bag was launched in 2018. First spotted on the arm of Lady Gaga at the end of August 2018, the boxy, black leather top-handle handbag features discreet gold hardware and a Celine logo. It has been named the 16 after the location of the brand’s headquarters and atelier in Paris, and comes in three sizes and a range of colors. Featuring a sleek and minimal profile, the Celine 16 Bag recaptures some of the House’s historic codes from the 60’s, such as the cropped flap and rounded belt accents.
In the last four years Celine released different version of the 16 bag, like the soft, the besace and the bucket.
7. Celine Cabas
Designed by Phoebe Philo this is her take on the everyday carryall. She was inspired by paper bags and every new season launched new iterations of this iconic style. Hedi Slimane continues to add to the Cabas family, with some new additions becoming super popular. This bag is credited with having started the tote bag craze a few years ago, and I can definitely see why.
This bag is not only practical but also extremely chic, this is every minimalist’s dream bag.
