The Chic, Elegant and Premium-Looking French Handbag Stylish People in London Are Wearing Now

2 days ago 4

Despite Polène's popularity, I'm continually astounded by the mammoth queues surrounding its flagship stores in Paris. Upon entering the storefront, the majority of prospective customers (having studied their favourite styles prior—the brand has a notable presence on social media) make a beeline for Numéro neuf—one of the brand's most coveted handbag styles. Each of Polène's goods is handmade by artisans in Ubrique, Spain and the brand's arsenal currently stands at thirteen styles—from woven leather handbags (Nodde) to deep set tote bags (Cyme) and among the brand's more directional styles is Numéro Neuf—a refined, compact handbag.

Aida Polene Handbags

Numéro Neuf comprises an organic shape and flexible concave design, a magnetic closure and supple calfskin fabrication, with the addition of hand-stitching, making the bag feel truly unique. The relaxed form is akin to a dumpling shape, with a supple top handle and elongated shoulder strap, so it can be worn crossbody. Numéro Neuf is a condensed style also available in a shrunken iteration. The style is available in seven colourways, with the addition of a handful of vibrant colours and unique textiles in the mini style.

Excitingly, we spoke and Polene listened, and on December 9th, Polène opened the doors to its first London flagship store, so for the first time, you can peruse the collection without crossing the pond! Discover many of the brands' popular styles, but truth be told, we can see why Numéro Neuf remains one of Polène's most adored styles. Continue reading to discover and shop the extensive colourways. You're guaranteed to fall in love!
