After stealing the hearts of many with the Rodeo and its charms, Balenciaga clearly shows no signs of stopping. Now it’s cult-favourite Le Cagole that gets a charming update for spring-summer 2024. Yes, the Parisian fashion brand releases two new editions in Arena lambskin decked out with an assortment of charms.
This seasonal special also comes with a deliberate worn-in vintage vibe. You’ll see it on the black XS Shoulder Bag and Small Sling Bag in white. Of course, the stars of these exclusive bags are the clusters of detachable charms. These accompaniments range from logo-embossed locks to keychains and heart-shaped carabiners that reflect Balenciaga’s penchant for pushing boundaries.
Moreover, these extra charms go beyond mere decoration on your Le Cagole. Remove them for a cleaner look, switch them between your favourite bags, or mix and match the assortment to create your own unique style statement. And if that’s not enough, you can pick from the wide selection of bag charms available to up the personalisation factor.
Not surprisingly, these versions with extra charms wield slightly higher prices than their classic counterparts. The Le Cagole Small Sling Bag and Le Cagole XS Shoulder Bag retail at SGD7850 and SGD8550 respectively, for example.
See these charming Le Cagole bags up close now at the Balenciaga boutique in Marina Bay Sands. Alternatively, head to Singapore’s e-store if you’re set on getting one, because Balenciaga offers complimentary shipping and returns.
