Via GRAPHIC PLUS — With every shift in season, wardrobes and accessories are reinvented. Our Parisienne, who inspires trends and defines the spirit of the times, loves to complement her look with new essentials such as the iconic Le Pliage, which is revisited in two bold, color-block versions: Le Pliage One and Le Pliage Xtra.
Over her shoulder or in her hand, these pieces set the tone for a season where fashion is resolutely fresh and fun.
For the new season, our Parisienne returns to her faithful Le Pliage bag, a staple of her wardrobe for over 30 years. For the occasion, it is reimagined in a stylishly pared-down version, Le Pliage One, which expresses the essence of an updated heritage through a simple equation: one icon, one concept, one color.
Destined to be the new It-bag of fashion insiders, it adopts a subtly extended format with longer handles, perfect for carrying close to the body – and the heart.
Not one for half-measures, Le Pliage One goes full-on color-block: One, for a single shade. From its (70% recycled) nylon canvas, through its cowhide-leather flap, to its hardware, every element comes in a single color – be it deepest black, charcoal gray, beige, burgundy or even lemon yellow, which adds zest to summer outfits.
With this monochrome manifesto, Le Pliage One reinvents classic codes with its iconic design, at once modern and minimalist, and reasserts its cult status. A fashion statement that masterfully combines elegance and practicality.
Le Pliage Xtra, small is beautiful
Equally emblematic, Le Pliage Xtra is revisited with a graphic new design that is bang on trend. With its long handles and elongated East-West format, this slimline bag nestles neatly over the shoulder, or under the arm, and under the arm for stylish sorties about town. Its proportions have been carefully calculated to hold all the season’s essentials, as well as to be personalized with an array of charms and accessories.
Crafted from supple cowhide leather, Le Pliage Xtra comes in a palette of deep, all-over shades – Mocha, Lime, Tundra or Wave – and revisited classics – Black, Paper, Cashew or Dove.
While its bold look puts it at the top of the season’s wish-list, this new must-have has all it takes to stay the distance.
“Carried by curious minds, Le Pliage One stands out with its bold handles and unique color. Le Pliage Xtra, meanwhile, shapes a silhouette in motion — contemporary and monochrome, never monotonous” – Sophie Delafontaine, Longchamp Artistic Director.
