Balenciaga is known for creating the unexpected, evident in notable hits like the Bel Air and Rodeo. But the arrival of the all-new Carrie Bowling Bag feels like a sudden, unexpected hush. Emerging amidst its High Summer campaign, this minimalist east-west bowling bag throws a curveball against the Balenciaga norm.

At first glance, the Carrie adheres closely to the bowling bag archetype, its bulbous silhouette easily holding daily essentials. But crafted from supple calfskin with equally lush nappa lambskin lining, it boasts a uniquely curved exterior flap. This eye-catching detail also doubles as an extra slip pocket for bits and bobs.

The Balenciaga logo is present but discreet, positioned in the inner flap. Alongside, the words ‘Made in Italy by Balenciaga’ and ‘Genuine Leather’ appear in shiny foil debossing. Each Carrie Bowling Bag also comes with an adjustable handle clip and identity tag attached to its handles. The latter functions like a luggage tag that you can mark with your name, country and phone number.

The Carrie Bowling Bag arrives in timely fashion for spring-summer 2025, proving that Balenciaga can still command attention even when it chooses to speak softly. Retailing in small (SGD3650) and medium (SGD4490) sizes, measuring 31 cm by 12 cm and 36 cm by 19 cm respectively, the bag is currently available in Black, Mineral Green and White.
