Tired of bags that are too small and impractical? This bag, adopted by everyone and already adored by Iris Mittenaere, combines practicality and elegance.
The bag is an everyday essential. Without it, where could we store our headphones, our chewing gum, our wallet, our keys…? Some bags, designed for the sole purpose of enhancing an outfit, do not, however, allow us to store all our belongings and find them easily. Today, practicality is key. This is why the Cyme de Polène or the XXL clutch from Bottega Veneta are so popular.
It was in this spirit that model Amelia Gray, daughter of actors Harry Hamlin and Lisa Rinna, imagined her bag when The Kooples came knocking on her door, offering to create a piece from A to Z. The young woman from 23 wanted to create a bag that was not only stylish, but also practical and could be worn for any occasion. “The practicality of the model was the most important for me. It’s never nice to empty your bag in public to try to find your lighter, your wallet, or your AirPods“, she explains to our colleagues at Vogue France.
On the arms of all Parisians since September, the young model’s bag quickly became a huge success. Iris Mittenaere can no longer do without it. She wears it every day, but also on special occasions, like the series photocall Emily in Paris.
Having become viral on social networks, French women love its design with multiple pockets. Amelia Gray also said that all pockets had a specific purpose. “Each pocket is unique, designed for my preferences: an AirPods pocket, a lipstick pocket, a chewing gum pocket, a lip liner pocket, a mirror, everything is in this bag“, she told Stylist.
In grained, smooth, or cracked leather, The Kooples It bag is available in three different sizes: small (395 euros), medium (445 euros) or XL (495 euros) and in nearly fifteen different colors! In black and white, it embodies Parisian elegance; in red, glamour; in pink, the flirtatious look; in jeans, the iconic Y2K style of the 2000s…
It is impossible not to find happiness. The Amelia bag is a real all-purpose bag that can be worn with any clothing and on any occasion. Its creator explains it to French Vogue : “You can wear it very well with jeans, the one that gives you the most self-confidence, a vintage belt, a pair of comfortable, versatile and easy-to-wear shoes, and a pretty jacket…”
