A Look At The Classic Balenciaga City Bag and How to Choose Yours
The Classic Balenciaga City Bag (previously known as the Motorcycle Bag or the more hip term, the Balenciaga Moto Bag) was introduced in 2001. Balenciaga was not a fan of the original design, calling it too structureless compared to other handbags on the market. As a result, the fashion house released a very limited edition with only 25 samples sent exclusively to models, such as Kate Moss, and fashion editors as well. With celebrities such the Olsen twins, Nicole Richie, Sienna Miller and Katie Holmes photographed toting the bag, it quickly became the “must have” bag. Besides the celebrity factor, what is it about the Balenciaga City Bag that makes fashionistas everywhere desire one?
