So, a few months ago BagServant started to spot that almost every established fashion designer and even new brands, had copied the classic Celine silhouette handbag shape and we pulled together a selection of Celine style handbags for our followers to get their claws into.
Now, last week, Business of Fashion confirmed that the boxy-shaped leather tote bag that widens towards the top to form a vaguely trapezoidal, ‘winged’ shape, has becomes the most copied handbag shape to date, and what’s more, the fastest selling.
Phoebe Philo, the creative director of the house of Céline, who pioneered the shape, has an undeniable influence across the fashion world. Luxury brands such as Phillip Lim, Valentino, Reed Krakoff and many more have copied the winged-shape tote bag, proving it to be the new IT shaped handbag in the world today. Can it be the new Chanel or Hermes? Only time will tell…
