The Chanel Bag Every Fashion Insider Owns

It has become abundantly clear that some of the best bags of the season have arrived in the form of reinterpreted classics. Often, these are bags that go beyond trends and instead revisit the iconic house codes of luxury brands. Shoppers have shown interest in purchasing forever items, including updated releases of popular bags from designer brands. Case in point: the Chanel 22 Mini Handbag.

The original Chanel 22 bag was introduced at the French fashion house’s S/S 22 runway show in Paris, which was full of ’90s nostalgia and fresh takes on iconic pieces. Among them is the 22 bag—a big shopper tote designed with Chanel’s signature quilted leather, two chain straps adorned with a double-C charm, the brand name written on the side in metal letters, and a drawstring top that has a scrunched effect when the straps are pulled closed.
