Balenciaga Bags

Designer Nicolas Ghèsquiere launched the Motorcycle bag in 2001, near the beginning of his 15-year-long tenure at Balenciaga. The bag, crafted from supple black lambskin and with rugged hardware details, was initially created as a runway prototype.

Balenciaga City Bag – the Iconic Fashion Household Name. Balenciaga\\\'s Motorcycle Bags, now a cult favorite, almost never made it to retail. Designed in 2001 by Nicolas Ghesquiere, the fashion house originally only approved the production of 25 sample pieces, which were sent exclusively to fashion editors and models.
The original version was called the City, with a relaxed rectangular shape, but soon there was also the Velo, which leaned more towards square; the Part Time, and the Work, with subtle variations instantly recognizable to the connoisseur; the Town, the Polly, the Mini Pom Pom!
In July 2001, the Gucci Group acquired a 91 percent stake in Balenciaga, which was founded in 1919 by Cristobal Balenciaga.
City bags come with tassels on the zipper pulls. They\\\'re thin and soft, and the most delicate part of the bag. The main zipper lining comes with two zipper pulls and 4 tassels, while the external pocket comes with one zipper pull and two tassels. Balenciaga\\\'s trusted maker for all things zipper is Lampo.
