Stacked Geometric Purses

The Classic Bao Bao Bag Has Been Reinterpreted in a New Collection

— September 26, 2016 — Art & Design
The 'Bao Bao' bags are a "favorite among architects and designers" and the Japanese fashion designer Issey Miyake has created a new collection that adds a new twist to the bags' classic design.

The Chord Collection features a variety of purses in the style of either square totes or smaller clutches. Featured in black, white or in mismatched designs with various symbols, what the bags each have in common is their stacked geometric exterior. Bao Bao bags are known for their triangular pattern and the newest collection features those along with squares, circles, rectangles, arrows and lightning bolts.

These bags are still highly recognizable for their signature geometric shapes, but their reinterpreted design adds a refreshing new perspective that loyal consumers and those new to the brand will both enjoy.
