Bring it back: Hervé Chapelier
I’ve been reusing my 10-year-old Hervé Chapelier canvas tote a lot this summer so was interested to see it also got a mention in US Vogue recently.
Along with the Longchamp Le Pliage, it’s a fine example of high quality, enduring design that does a job without making a song and dance about it. It’s a great product on its own but it could also do with a well-chosen collab or two to introduce it to a new audience – well that certainly hasn’t done Longchamp any harm.
And can we talk about the Hervé Chapelier website? I can think of a million ways to bring the site of this made-in-France 90s favourite bang up-to-date with rich content and engaging stories, not to mention better functionality. Call me please, team Chapelier…

Uncanny I was tweeting every London department store to see if they had any Herve Chapelier bags in stock! I’ve still got all the ones I own from the early 90’s

@Teawithonesugar – There must be something in the air! I think they sell them in Fenwick?
