50 Bags and the Celebs Who Carried Them at Paris Fashion Week Spring 2014

Here it is, folks. The one we’ve all been waiting for. None of the international fashion weeks attract mega-watt celebrities quite like Paris Fashion Week, and with brands like Chanel and Louis Vuitton presenting in the French capital, you know that the handbags on the arms of the guests will be just as lust-worthy as it gets. Spring 2014 didn’t disappoint – from beginning to end, attendees toted their best, most photo-worthy bags, and luckily, photos were indeed taken. We’ve assembled the best of the best after the jump for your (and our) viewing pleasure.


We’ll start with one of the most memorable parts of Paris Fashion Week – Marc Jacobs’ swan song at Louis Vuitton. Naturally, his bestie and sometime collaborator Sofia Coppola showed up to support him carrying the Louis Vuitton SC Satchel that she designed. Pick up your own via Louis Vuitton for $4,850.

Of course, there are other reasons to carry a particular designer’s bags, other than being invited to a show. For Salma Hayek, being married to the head of luxury conglomerate Kering means that she’s required by marital obligation to carry this Stella McCartney Faux Napa Flap Clutch to McCartney’s show. (We’re sure she didn’t mind.) Pick up the shoulder bag version for $1,230 via Neiman Marcus.

Ignore, for a moment, that Steve Harvey went to the Valentino show and you didn’t. Instead, focus on wife Marjorie Bridges’ lovely Fendi Crocodile Peekaboo Bag. (Marjorie is apparently a major shopper.) Pick up the leather version for $3,250 via Neiman Marcus.

For some reason, I had it in my head that Italian socialite Bianca Brandolini d’Adda’s crocodile bag was vintage Hermes, but now I can’t find anything to support that instinct. Little help, please? It sure is a beautiful bag.

Finally, Chanel. No designer is better at getting celebs to turn up at his shows while carrying his bags than Karl Lagerfeld, and we counted well over a dozen international celebs and fashion people at this season’s show, starting with Katy Perry and her Chanel Lego Clutch.
