The Ultimate Bag Guide: Chanel 19 Bag

A detailed look at Chanel's newest flap bag

In March of 2019, Chanel debuted Karl Lagerfeld’s final collection for the brand, and it was then that the Chanel 19 Bag made its runway debut. The 19 bag has only been for sale for 6 months, and yet it has already become a beloved choice for Chanel lovers around the globe. In fact, our introductory post was one of the most viewed posts on our site last year.

In case you need a refresher, the 19 Bag was designed by Lagerfeld alongside Virginie Viard, who has since taken over the creative reigns of the brand. The 19 Bag pays homage to the classic 2.55 bag, which was created by Coco Chanel in February of 1955—hence the name 2.55. Just like the bag that inspired it, the Chanel 19 Bag is named after the year of its birth. Designed to be both semi-structured and supple at the same time, the Chanel 19 is offered in 5 sizes and multiple fabrications. The design is classic in its flap bag design but also modern with its mixed gold/ruthenium hardware and bold CC logo. Though only in its second season, the 19 has already been reimagined many different ways. Below we’ve compiled a comprehensive guide to Chanel’s newest It-bag.
