Longchamp’s Lunar New Year collection is always looked forward to every year by handbag fans, and this year is no exception. In a collaboration with Chinese fashion designer and influencer, Mr Bags, Longchamp’s Year of The Pig collection. The bags and pouches sold out quite quickly in Asia and America, and even on the UK website, only the pink Le Pliage Cuir remains!

Some of the items include:

This is a PVC transparent Le Pliage, which allows you to see the pink pig nose,  a leather purse to keep your essentials hidden. I like the design of the bag, it is quite clever! The bag is complete with leather trimmings and a detachable carry strap. Priced in the UK at £300.

This is leather Le Pliage Cuir, available in black or pink, priced in the UK at £395. It features a pig backside on the front, and his face on the back. Made in lambskin leather and also features a detachable carry strap. There is also a little quirky detail when you lift open the flap!

This bag is also available in a larger size as a travel bag for £755 in black.

One more item in the collection is the Mr Bags Pouch (£200). This is a small pouch with a strap and features the pig nose on the front which forms a mini pocket. There is also a larger main pocket too, both finished with the Longchamp tag zips.

I think the Mr Bags x Longchamp collection is probably the best I have seen from handbag brands this year. I like the fact that the designs are quite abstract and clever, quirky and cute. The fact that they sold out very quickly just goes to prove that this is a popular collection!
