Chanel Croc Biarritz
Image from Chanel
The buzz heard around the world came from the Louis Vuitton Tribute Patchwork Bag. Not only was I less than impressed, but also highly annoyed that those behind the curtains and scene named that atrocious mess ‘the most expensive bag in the world’. Give me a break Mr and Mrs LV PR. And give me a bigger break to the suckers who bought it. Although only slightly edging out its “competition” in price, there is a huge buzz behind a Chanel bag that is a force to be reckoned because of its price and beauty. Feast your eyes on the Chanel Croc Biarritz, an oversized (literally huge) Chanel tote designed with black crocodile. Forbes reports that there are three of these in Chanel NYC, two in Chanel LA, and three more wandering around select Neiman Marcus locations. There is a simply understated external zip pocket with a CC silver pull and dividers on the inside. Not sure if the bag can be found anywhere now, but the Chanel Croc Biarritz deserves much more fuss and press and spotlight than the LV bag of horrors. Coming in at $43,150, this bag is sure to be exclusive not only because of the limited quantity made, but also the exorbitant price tag. Any of you get one of the eight known beauties? Wanna share?? For more information contact your local Chanel boutique or Chanel online.

I did not say it was not “beautiful”. I said it wasn’t worth that many thousands of dollars, plus i was suprised that chanel used croc skin. Geeeez…have a cow…

Lee your an idiot who does not undertand the importance of the new pret-a-porter couture. Crocodile is the most expensive skin for a bag. You are just jealous because you have a hard time affording your payless shoes and Kmart bags. Enjoy the new Mizrahi for Target clothing line. Good luck getting off Wellfare

To Lee
Chanel has been using Crocodile and Alligator since at least Karl became creative director. It is a beautiful and luxurius skin that everyone should own. I suggest you save your money for the rest of your life so you can at least afford a croc or alligator 2.55 these are only around $12,500. Just so you know they are not sold at your local mall.

Good luck ever maturing into a tolerable human being if that’s even possible for you

6.23.2008 - 6:51 pm
you are all materialistic pieces of s==t with no substance! of course except for lee and jezebelle{because they have a conscience! couture collector sounds like a parvenu{social climber with no taste} i happen to be able to afford a 100,000 dollar bag if i wanted to and ten times over and i would never ever think of even wasting my money on excessive show of of wealth, i would rather give it to a worthy charity or cause! but thats just me!

Raquel,
I also agree that 40,000+ for a bag is a lot, but you should also remember that it is all relative. To the average middle class person, this bag may just be a hope, desire, or aspiration. We have no place in telling anybody that they should not spend this money on a purse if they can afford it. Not saying that this money wouldn’t be better spent in a charity, it is up to the person to make such a distinction. In reality, one who would be able to spend such an amount of money on one single handbag also has the resources to give the same amount or more to a charity. To say that everyone on here are materialistic pieces of shit with no substance is a baseless, rude and unnecessary insult. I find myself looking at these purses as pieces of art, just as any art collector would die to own a Picasso.
