A guide to rare Chanel Boy bags that are worth investing for
Immediately after appearing on the Autumn and Winter runway in 2011, Chanel Boy handbags immediately attracted the attention of critics and fans with elegant lines and pragmatic style.
Karl Lagerfeld was inspired by Coco Chanel's youthful spirit, and at the same time honoring her love with British polo player Arthur "Boy" Capel. As a result, the Chanel Boy is born as a modern, minimalistic and somewhat unisex bag.
The tufted leather and dual C-logo of the bag are an unmistakable classic Chanel look but things are kept interesting every season. Here, we present to you rare designs of the Chanel Boy that are definite investment pieces for collection!
PEARL BOY BAG
This limited edition Boy Bag encapsulates the brand's impeccable unisex beauty, combining the lustrous luster of a large gauge chain with soft pearl sheen on a satin background.
BOY BRICK FLAP BAG
As a "sister" to the widely-known Lego bag, Boy Brick has a brick-and-tile-inspired design that is clearly shown on the lid of the bag. Launched in 2015, the sheepskin bag exudes mischief, while the patina-treated brass hardware exudes classics and elegance.
SO BLACK CHANEL BOY
Like the hugely popular "So Black" Classic Flap bag, "So Black" Boy is also very much sought after, sold out right after its launch in 2017.
The black jet bag is crafted in luxury caviar leather featuring sexy ruthenium metal. The unfortunate thing for the fashionistas that the product is not available every season, making it a rare collectible sought after by many.
RAINBOW BOW BAG
With attractive colors dressing the silhouette, the Rainbow first appeared on the 2017 Cruise runway. The bags were made to be feminine and ethereal, with dreamy pastel colors softened when the brand reintroduced this design for the Cruise 2018 show.
MULTI CHAIN CHANEL BOY
As the most sleek version of the Chanel Boy bag, it's not surprising that Multi Chain has an extra sizing strap on the front of the bag lid. What's surprising is that it looks more rugged than other Boy versions, as a reminder of how successfully Chanel can be creative on its own each season.
