Longchamp Le Pliage Cuir Collection
Nary a day passes when I don’t have a new video to share here, but today’s video promises to be different. Besides showcasing the upcoming Longchamp Le Pliage Cuir collection that’s due in Singapore come April 2012, it also features dancing models, but more on that later.
For those of you who are a little confused, think Le Pliage, but in leather. Absolutely supple and almost baby bottom soft, the bags in the Le Pliage Cuir collection are also foldable like its predecessor and come in a wide variety of shapes (5 in all) and colours (there’s a total of 8 lovely hues).
Priced between SGD349 and SGD1067 (the boys could check out the travel-sized one that’s perfect for everyday use), the bags you see above in the ad campaign retail for SGD673, which isn’t so bad for something that’s made of quality leather, comes with a shoulder strap and that can be folded away when not in use.
Did I also mention you’ll be spoiled for choice as far as the colours are concerned?
Now back to the video, which was directed by Blanca Li for Longchamp in New York City. Featuring models Coco Rocha and Lissa Winkler, as well as professional Lido dancer Alexa Level, they break out in dance along the streets as they bump into one another carrying the smallest Le Pliage Cuir handbag in colours like Cyclamen, Orange and Red; it’s worthy of their very own musical.
It’s fun, it’s irreverent, and the girls do look like they’re having the time of their lives.
UPDATE: The Longchamp Le Pliage Cuir collection will be released this Friday (13 April 2012) at Longchamp boutiques in ION Orchard, Marina Bay Sands and Paragon. Prices will start from SGD673 for the smallest handbag all the way to SGD1067 for the largest travel-sized one.

That green oxford is definitely you and that orange longchamp is definitely for one of my girlfriends… Thanks for posting!!!
Your intel is better than the boutique’s. I asked them over the weekend if they knew when the Le Pliage Cuir collection was landing, and they couldn’t give me a ballpark – not even the month.
(That leggy model on the left, at the start of this post, is posing in a very painful-looking way. I winced.)
So I went to the Sands and I’ve decided that the biggest one shall be my new inflight carry-on bag. Trouble is, they only had it in colours I wasn’t keen on. Fortunately my SA in London is happy to help me hunt it down.
Do you have any idea which date in April will Longchamp launch these bags in SG? (FB)
Hang in there dear! Once I know I’ll do another update here.
So gorgeous! Am so gonna get one as a birthday present to myself.
Hey! I’m coming to Singapore tomorrow… did Le Pliage Cuir arrive yet in SG? Really love it!
No Yana, not yet. Probably end April 2012 for Singapore as far as the release date is concerned.
Thank you dearie… please do update me on date… will come back to SG for this bag…
Hi Yana, the bags will be released in Singapore this Friday.
Bought it from Paris… loving it!!! Its so beautiful…
Just wondering, will this be part of the permanent line or is it something seasonal? Will definitely check it out on Friday!
Hey Mel, it is a permanent collection, but with new colours every season.
Alright, guess who’s going to the Sands for dinner tomorrow after work.
Picked up the pink and blue in two different sizes, love it!!! Seems the orange, pink and turquoise are this season’s colours – the rest will be permanent. Can’t wait to see what other colours they release!
Cool! Send me snapshots for Mailbag! And congrats again!
Thank you dear… already bought it in Navy Blue… thank god so beautifull… I`m purposely fly from KL to SG just for a bag…
May I know how much is sg selling – the one shown in the video? Thanks!
The smallest handbag (with the shoulder strap) sells for SGD673.
