Weekend impulse buy: Sarah Morris x Longchamp
It’s almost the weekend, and if we’re going by your regular shopping habits, we’re guessing you’re probably looking for your next fashion purchase to get you through the week’s final work day. How about a limited edition Le Pliage to accompany your Jeremy Scott and Kate Moss gems from previous seasons?
The House of Longchamp has turned to the artist Sarah Morris to reinterpret its iconic Le Pliage bag in celebration of the line’s 20th anniversary. The Sarah Morris collection comprises a colorful limited edition Le Pliage, inspired by one of the artist’s paintings from the “Rio” series. This leather shopper, produced in just 125 examples, was created in a specific shape: a square, which evokes the canvases that Sarah Morris normally uses for her creations.
The bag is crafted in a smooth and sumptuous calfskin, which is extremely supple, allowing it to be folded. All examples are signed by the artist. This limited edition is now available at Longchamp stores across the Middle East.
