The Chanel Le Boy bag was destined to be an icon ever since its Spring 2012 release. Although it is still considerably new, the Le Boy has etched a permanent place in Chanel’s modern legacy, while still fitting in with Chanel’s classic lineup. The bag’s design is based on a hunting cartridge style originally carried by Coco Chanel herself.
The Chanel Boy bag is designed to embody the androgynous charm the designer herself was known for. Of his inspiration for the name, Karl Lagerfeld has said, “Chanel used men’s underwear to make dresses; she had this boyish attitude, in fact it is the very spirit of Chanel. She got it from Boy Capel, the great love of her life, which, incidentally, explains why the new bag is called the Boy Chanel.”
Aside from the historical precedent of the bag, the laid back bag’s appeal feeds into the younger millennial generation’s cravings for the brand, as continuous playful variations are released every season.
