Loro Piana is most famed for its exquisite textiles, like rare vicuña wool and ultra-soft baby cashmere. But besides its devotion to exceptional fabrics, the 101-year-old Italian brand also boasts a leather goods collection that encapsulates exceptional savoir-faire. Enter the effortlessly elegant Extra Bag L27.
An evolution of the Extra Pocket L19 that debuted in 2019, the Extra Bag first came onto the scene in fall-winter 23/24. A sophisticated big sister to the iconic leather pouch, L27 maintains the same sculptural lines and minimalist style, while offering more functionality.
Measuring 27 cm by 16 cm by 10 cm, the Extra Bag L27 transitions seamlessly from day to night. Unlike the Extra Pocket’s rectangular side view, this features a subtly wider base. Which not only lends it a trapezoidal profile, but also allows it to accommodate more. A double zipper that curves gracefully around the front of the bag keeps your belongings secure.
Two detachable, interchangeable charms add further functional flair. One, a padlock that can reinforce the zip closure, and another that tucks inside the vintage-style leather keychain. Completing the design is a versatile two-way slider shoulder strap, which easily converts it from shoulder bag to crossbody.
And true to Loro Piana’s emphasis on elevated tactility, the Extra Bag L27 comes in a variety of rich finishes. Whether it’s classic calfskin or suede, exotic ostrich leather or one of its signature textiles like cashmere, wool or a unique cotton-linen blend for a refined twist, there’s definitely a make to suit your taste.
