Chanel doesn’t do anything halfway. That’s simply not Karl Largerfeld’s way, and when you’re a brand as powerful and beloved as Chanel, there’s no reason not to do everything you want. For Spring 2017, that meant realizing the collection’s data center theme not just with embroidery and detailing made of wires and cords, but also with plenty of bags that actually light up.
The LED-lit bags in question are the collection’s most interesting innovation and will surely become collectors’ items, even if they’re not the most everyday useable options. The lights appear in large bulbs on Boy Shoulder Bags and in smaller, pattern-changing arrays on both Boy Shoulder Bags and Boy Pouches. As you might guess, the LED bags are very expensive, with prices routinely reaching into the five figures.
If you’re not in the market for a bag that will help you find your house keys in your dark garage, the collection also includes dozens of more conventional bags that are just as beautiful. Check them all out below; this collection is arriving in Chanel boutiques worldwide as we speak.

Lately I’ve been so bored with Chanel, but these are gorgeous!
Oh my! I find them stunning. I’ve always loved the iridescents and it’s lovely on those Boys. The top handle are gorgeous too, and I’m glad they are mixing metals. I even like the tweed which is not usually my favorite. Not too fond of the see-through bag and I hope that doesn’t become a trend again. The rest are on point. I don’t have play money but if I did, I’d get a light up bag. They will not hold up well to time, I’m afraid, unless one is extremely careful. Battery acid and bags doesn’t sound like a great combo!
While I am not in the market for a light up bag, it is interesting. I like many of the others. The classics with the caviar leather but not quilted, I like the look. I love the little camera bag. What do you think of the Gabrielle Hobo??? I kinda of like it but will wait to see what it does in the market.
i hope they make number 47 in beige and black…… such a useful bag……
Really? Am I too ordinary to understand these high end fashion brand?
If it’s not your thing it’s not your thing. Nothing to do with being “ordinary”. ??
You know, when you see upwards of 92 handbags for a season, that brand becomes non-exclusive. They do have a very exclusive price range and seasonal schtick. But schtick, like LED bags, is just a bit too much. Too expensive, and I suspect, too available. Very many handbags and too many choices will drive Chanel fans to other truly exclusive designers.
I wish the pink flap was quilted ???
They aren’t very summery. I’ve been waiting to get a nice light colour for a while now and they’re still too dark.
what would happen if the LED batteries ran out?
I like the look of the non-quilted cavier flap.
so in love with the mini flap & all the iredescent bags ???
are the LED bags require “Chanel” batteries or regular batteries will do. Asking for a friend
LOVE LOVE the non quilted 11 & 12. I wish they’d do more non quilted (they did a few non quilted reissues a few seasons ago). Chanel is such a powerhouse they don’t need to quilt EVERYTHING to maintain the brand. Shape and hardware are enough.
I’m OBSESSED with fanny packs (don’t ask) and am drooling over the silver one!
Those clutches with the O ring look like Business Class amenity bags.. they are heinous. I do like the Gabrielle line, shoppers, hobos, and buckets
60% of these are hideous
Totally agree. It like school projects and they looks so cheap and can’t see any quality elements at all. Yet again over price and silly to spend money for the name rather than true quality. Crazy indeed.
So many beautiful bags in this collection.
omg the pvc’s!!! and the adorable mini’s!!!
#67 be still my beating heart. And am loving the Gabrielles’ especially the Chanel Gabrielle Python Purse. The LED things is a bit too much of a fad thing for me. Theres a few beauties in there.
