Chloé has a habit of creating cult handbags. It all started in 2005 with the slouchy Paddington featuring a gold padlock. In fact, you could say that the epic waiting list it caused was one of the triggering factors behind It bags even becoming a thing in the first place. Thirteen years later, the accessories department at the French fashion house is still sending shoppers into a spin, and right now there’s another new handbag that shoppers are clambering to get their hands on: the Chloé C bag.

The shoulder bag is really elegant, as it has a wide leather strap, a delicate C logo on the clasp, and comes in beautiful colors like dusty blue, rich chocolate and even a vibrant tie-dye effect. There are several different silhouettes, such as square mini bags with a sturdy top-handle strap, as well as rectangular shoulder bags with a chain strap and oversize shoulder bags.

This bag was always destined for cult status. Elizabeth von der Goltz, global buying director at Net-a-Porter, said in her 2019 trends presentation, “Chloé‘s Chloé Bag we have backed with around 20 options for both cruise and runway totalling to around 3000 units and making up 80% of our total Chloé bag buy.” Let’s just say this is reason enough for us to swiftly add this new It bag to our Christmas lists.

Style Notes: While Chloe Kiss bag hasn’t been around long, we guarantee it’ll be all over Instagram before you know it.

Style Notes: Saddlebags are a key trend this winter, and the Chloé Tess bag took center stage. Even better it comes in two sizes and several highly covetable colorways.

Style Notes: The bag causing the most buzz among fashion buyers from Natacha Ramsay-Levi’s debut Chloé collection was the updated Drew Bijou bag.

Style Notes: Chloé is the reason so many bags at the moment feature a gold circle handle or detailing, and the Nile is one of the brand’s it-bags, spotted on the likes of Eva Chen, Aimee Song, and Solange Knowles.

Style Notes: The ’70s-inspired Faye bag with a circle clasp and chain detailing first showed in the house’s S/S 15 show, and it since has been worn by every blogger we can think of. Years later, we’re still obsessed. It’s still worth investing in a Faye, as they’ve become a true classic.

Style Notes: The Drew handbag is also a street style favourite, and it has an elegant round silhouette with a gold chain strap and clasp. Olivia Palermo has the two-tone yellow-and-rose style, but if you’re after a more classic, long-lasting option, we recommend the black or tan versions.
