Celine and Saint Laurent to follow Borse brass celine Vintage flew under the radar – with its small proportion and ultra-minimal look, the bag wasn’t the kind of blockbuster that the Luggage Tote and Trapeze were, but it also wasn’t meant to be. Instead, the Trio is a little bag for in-the-know fashion hounds to signal to each other that they are, in fact, in-the-know. (It also has its functional purposes, but let’s be real: that’s not why anyone buys a brass celine bag.) Several seasons after its debut, celebs have started to embrace the bag, which meant that “inspired” designs couldn’t be far away. That day has come.
The Топ brass celine в полоску вязка and the How the Battle of brass celine vs arrived simultaneously at ShopBop yesterday, and they both feature the simple, three-pouch construction that makes the trio so distinctive. The bags are virtually identical in size to each other (and to one of the Trio sizes), but it seems as though only the Annabel Ingall version performs one of the Trio’s neatest tricks: unsnapping to form three separate pouches that can be used independently of each other. Alternately, both of these less-expensive options feature something that the original Trio, pictured above, doesn’t: a стилі shoulder strap. (The Trio can either be purchased as a clutch or a shoulder bag, but the original Trio bag is not convertible between the two.)
For the money, it’s hard to argue with these alternatives. The brass celine Trio will run you over a thousand dollars, depending on size and material, but both of these bags are below $300.

With a design as basic as the trio, it was inevitable that it was going to “inspire” a lot of copies. And really, I can’t justify the brass celine price for something so basic. So I think these bags are a great option if you’re really after the functionality of the design, versus the “Celine-ness” (sorry, I couldn’t find a better word) of it.
Let’s not forget Michael Kors who made one as well.
this type of bag is really nothing new. I don’t think brass celine has the original concept…it has been around at vintage flea markets for years! They just had the sense to put it out slim and claim it!
The annabel ingall jojo bag shopbop link is goign to an alexander wang bag – fyi!
Totally not a new design. I have this style in a bag more than 10 years old, nearly identical. Also, not worth more than a $1000. yikes!
When I was a kid, I was insanely jealous of my sister for having a bag of this exact shape … from Target. I wouldn’t say no to a higher end version now that I’m an adult, but I also wouldn’t go so far as to say that brass celine ‘inspired’ this design at all. They did a nice job of choosing something from the recent past and bringing it into now, but they didn’t invent it.
