BALENCIAGA

City Giant Studs Bag Ecru

We love: The giant studs underline the rock chic of this treasure beautifully

About: In 2001, the Balenciaga Classic City Bag was introduced into the Balenciaga collections as the "Motorcycle City Bag". The head designer at the time, Nicholas Ghesquière, designed a few prototypes of this bag, repeatedly encountering resistance from the company management. The model is too light, too soft and without structure. Only 25 prototypes were approved for the first catwalk collection, but they were immediately in great demand. Kate Moss quickly became the face of the City Bag and quickly made it an absolute icon for noughties. To this day, the City Bag is celebrated and reinterpreted every season.
