Lux Luggage-Like Handbags

The RIMOWA Original Bag Comes in Silver and Black Finishes

— September 14, 2024 — Luxury
The RIMOWA Original Bag has been created by the brand as its first foray into the world of handbags that prioritizes style, quality and versatility to work well for consumers of any gender. The bag comes in the recognizable silver finish and a black finish to boot, which are both crafted out of lightweight aluminum and feature the recognizable finishing touches that the brand's luggage is known for. The bag can be used with an adjustable and removable webbed strap to allow for crossbody or shoulder wear, while a built-in handle will allow for hand carrying.

Chief Executive Officer Hugues Bonnet-Masimbert spoke on the RIMOWA Original Bag saying, "We envision this bag to become an indispensable companion across a spectrum of journeys and personalities. Bringing this vision to life was an ambitious technical challenge, and we’re thrilled with the result: a versatile bag that epitomizes the disruptive innovation and meticulous craftsmanship RIMOWA is known for."
