The Secret of Schiaparelli

For the very first time, Schiaparelli is unveiling a handbag carrying all of women’s secrets. Meet the Secret of Schiaparelli, a contemporary expression of a woman’s bag made out of intricate craftsmanship, top-notch materials and a padlock.

That said, the padlock is a moniker Schiaparelli symbol featured in the House’s collection since 1931. This time around, it’s featured in the new design in a golden decorative and functional way, as a means to protect precious content, but also to symbolically preserve from the evil eye in some cultures and to be a token of love for others – true to Elsa Schiaparelli’s superstitious nature.

So picture a graphic, sleek and strong bag made in France using the most traditional techniques and savoir-faire. Better yet, picture a sophisticated design with timeless lines and exquisite detailing such as the House’s shocking pink inside stitching, a cream nappa lining, the “S” letter subtly engraved on metal studs and Schiaparelli’s lucky number “4” as a leitmotiv.

We all have our hidden agendas; so why not store them in a little place called the “Secret of Schiaparelli “?
