If you’re a firm believer in the bigger, the better, then check out Balenciaga’s Bel Air XL Carry All. This iteration upsizes its predecessor’s dimensions while retaining its core DNA. The added space makes it a great companion, especially for those who love carrying everything, including the kitchen sink, about.
The smooth calfskin leather bag exudes an air of understated elegance, with logos at a bare minimum. Including the handles, its generous proportions measure a whopping 52 cm wide by 62 cm high. Balenciaga’s twist-lock closures remain a signature element, adding a cool edge to the bag’s clean aesthetic.

Furthermore, its ingenious design allows multiple styling options, from sleek and minimalist to bold and expressive. A simple switch-up via the expandable sides and adjustable flap pockets lets you style the Bel Air XL Carry All as you deem fit.
Currently available in a single option in black calfskin, it pairs with aged-silver hardware. With soft Nappa leather lining as the cosy backdrop for belongings, the bag is just as stunning on the inside. Ideal for weekend staycations, it also doubles as the ultimate workhorse, with room for a laptop, change of clothes and gym shoes.
Priced at SGD10,900, pre-orders for the Bel Air XL Carry All are open at Balenciaga Singapore’s online store, with shipping expected to begin on 22 October 2024.
