Continuing her relationship with Longchamp, Kate Moss has help the creative behind their new collection of handbags. Probably some good advice coming from a girl who gets photographed endlessly with her vast array of envious-worthy, high end bags. Below Moss talks of her inspirations and design motivations for the Longchamp line.. (loosely translated from French from the pages of Paris Vogue February 2010)..
”The emerald green pochette, whose color I love, I wanted to be very simple, based on the shape of an envelope. I would wear it with all black or all navy. Because I love to wear dove grey, I wanted a bag in that color to go with my grey jeans. The zebra was inspired by an old pony printed valise from the ’70s that my boyfriend [Jamie Hince] brought back from San Francisco, very dry, very trashed, without any glamour, and which I loved. As for the bags in cognac leather, it’s a color and a very supple leather that we found in equestrian accessories stores, and we unfortunately can no longer find.”
Here is a look at some campaign images for the collaborations.
