Micro bags still reign supreme and there are no two ways about it. They’re tiny but mighty, truly deserving of continued love especially with how adorable they are.
These four here are also notable for the fact that they are icons of the respective fashion houses. Each gets creatively downsized into smaller-than-small formats with no diminishing of the X factor in the least. Here’s an in-depth look at these micro babies from your favourite labels.
01 - Bottega Veneta Candy Jodie, SGD2370
Of the four, Bottega Veneta’s Candy Jodie is the new kid of the block. And 'candy' is what the Italian fashion house uses to describe its micro range. You met the Candy Cassette and the Candy Arco and now, it is time for the candy-fication of the beloved Jodie as well.
Measuring 17 cm wide and 16 cm high, the Candy Jodie opens to a single compartment via the top zip closure. You can carry it easily via the structured intrecciato top handle. Aside from Parakeet, it will also come in neutral options like Black and Chalk. BOTTEGA VENETA
02 - Chanel Clutch With Chain, SGD3790
Up next? The Clutch With Chain that takes after Chanel’s signature top-handle bag. Measuring 11.2 cm by 10.5 cm, the miniature lilac lambskin SLG comes with light green trimmings for #CHANELSpringSummer pre-collection. The strap’s beautiful gradient effect will please those looking for something apart from classic black and singular neutrals. CHANEL
03 - Louis Vuitton Micro Métis, SGD2820
Louis Vuitton’s Micro Métis needs no introduction. It’s evident that the bag was designed to look like a miniature version of the Pochette Métis, with an S-lock clasp positioned in the middle of the V-shape flap.
The 14 cm by 11 cm size is perfect for carrying from day to night. Furthermore, the removable gold-tone chain is another definite plus. LOUIS VUITTON
04 - Mulberry Micro Alexa, USD615
Love the Mulberry Alexa but wish it came in a micro size? Look no further than the adorable Micro Alexa. At 11 cm wide and 8 cm high, this miniature wonder is the perfect amalgamation of Bayswater bag and Elkington briefcase. Elements from both Mulberry classics merge into one satchel and are secured with the Postman’s Lock.
Even if you don’t intend on using it as a miniature bag, the Micro Alexa can double up as a bag charm by removing the long leather strap. MULBERRY
