By now, you know the drill: Mansur Gavriel bags are cult favorites, they’re permanently sold out and it’s virtually impossible to get your hands on one without a months-in-advance pre-order. The good news, however, is that an opportunity for one such pre-order just arose at Moda Operandi, and it includes canvas and soft leather bags that are brand new for Spring 2015.
The only new shape that MG will introduce for Spring 2015 is a snap-closured envelope clutch, but the bucket bags, totes and backpacks will get a season-appropriate revamp in fine-gauge canvas trimmed with leather. I saw a prototype of one of these bags in person several months ago, on the arm of one of the brand’s owners, and it was one of the nicer majority-canvas bags I’ve ever seen; slightly nautical, a little preppy and just about as luxurious as a bag can be if it’s not made entirely of some sort of leather.
The second notable development in this collection is the addition of a leather that appears to have some slouch to it. Previously, the brand had featured three types of stiff leather, but if that’s not your thing, a soft, pebble-grained leather will be an option in the coming season.
Check out some of our favorite bags from the collection below or shop the full selection at Moda Operandi through September 15.
