The fact that small bags are in fashion is nothing new. With his miniature bag, designer Simon Porte Jacquemus takes the mickey out of himself - and makes a lot of money in the process.
Fashion comes and goes. That's why I find it so difficult to give old things away. That's how I feel about my large shoppers, which were the ultimate a while ago. Heaven on earth for me, as I can store everything in them and am prepared for the unpredictable such as rain, sun, colds, dry lips or hands. No problem for me. Until now.
In the past few years, I've had to watch helplessly as bags shrink season after season. Not that I have to follow every trend, but I really like these models. Although their size makes them totally impractical, I tell myself that at least I'm protecting my back by not packing them full.
Next level is the "Le Chiquito Bag" by Simon Porte Jacquemus. The fashion designer's micro bag has been worn up and down by bloggers. Now the Frenchman is taking the whole thing to the extreme with the even smaller "Le Chiquiti Bag". It measures a proud 8.5 x 5 cm and, with a bit of luck, has space for a tampon, sweets or AirPods.
Whoever now thinks that the shrunken bag doesn't come into its own is mistaken. Despite its non-existent size, the Tiny Bag attracts everyone's attention. But when I consider that I would have to fork out around 300 dollars (including customs duties & delivery costs) for this it-piece, even I can only smile wearily. It also looks ridiculous when worn like a handbag. Instead, you can wear the bag as a necklace around your neck or as a cuff (my favourite) around your wrist.
One downside: if you go out with the shrunken bag, you'll have to put up with it all evening and won't be reachable by phone. On the other hand, the bag has space for headache pills. So at least you'll be prepared for the morning after. If you still need a bag for your make-up, the French fashion house also has a solution up its sleeve: a Lipstick Bag for 350 dollars. At a total of 550 dollars, however, the question arises as to whether you want to buy a handy bag straight away.
