Coccinelle has bags of optimism
Coccinelle is bursting with optimism in its wildly colourful spring-summer 2017 collection, available at its pop-up shop at Siam Discovery until Monday (March 13).
The famed Italian leather-goods brand is singing an ode to the joy of life and softening the rules of elegance and seduction. It has bags to hold treasure and keep the emotions safe, bags with essential, pure lines that contain different but connecting worlds, expressions of the many facets of today’s contemporary woman.
The line’s “Gitane” style is an escape from the routine. It features multiethnic chasing and a spirit that combines a little rock ’n’ roll and a little globetrotter.
The shoulder, travel and bucket bags are loose, freed from constraints, in suede, leather, honeycomb canvas and Roma-style embroidery. The ’70s-inspired saddlebag is unlined and embellished by laser cuts and golden clasps. It changes face thanks to two removable “guitar” shoulder straps – leather for the city and woven canvas for a touch of the bohemian.
The “Liya” bag has a nomadic energy and is inspired by a warm, passionate and positive muse. The briefcase makes a return, practical and dynamic. And the tote has adjustable handles for the hand or the shoulder.
Shapes, stitching and metal studs are softened by the suppleness of suede and python-print and deer-print leather. Powdery pink and terracotta hues are borrowed from the deserts of California.
