The menu bag features a classic quilted flap but tucked underneath it, is none other than a menu book. The handbag comes in maroon or green lambskin leather and features text that says &#8216;Menu&#8217;, &#8216;Brasserie Gabrielle&#8217;.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although this item is rather strange, we suppose it makes sense to carry around a menu if you want to look like a snack!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brasserie Gabrielle Plate Bag<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"70889\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/plate-bags.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-70889\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>When we said we\u2019re hungry for fashion, this is what we meant!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Brasserie Gabrielle Plexiglass Plates Minaudiere presents two plexiglass plates with the words \u2018Brasserie Gabrielle&#8217;, engraved CC (for <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/8-ways-chanel-revolutionised-the-fashion-industry\/\">Coco Chanel<\/a><\/span>) logo and lambskin leather with a kiss lock closure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What&#8217;s more, this unusual bag can be yours for about R 136 000 &#8211; talk about luxury dining!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2.55 Encased in Plastic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"70892\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/2.55-in-plastic.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-70892\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides looking fabulous and carrying your personal belongings, the other purpose of a handbag is usually to hide your items. But, as usual, Chanel pushes the envelope. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 2.55 plastic-encased handbag clearly displays all your items excluding items in the 2.55 handbag. However, high fashion promises fabulousness, not necessarily functionality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After all, life in plastic is fantastic!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chanel Brass Shopping Basket<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you think wearing a shopping basket for a bag is ridiculous, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/price-of-chanel-handbags-in-south-africa\/\">wait till you hear about the price!<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although this item is merely a glorified shopping cart, it was first listed at R 142 000 in 2014, it is now worth over R 365 000 on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.luxity.co.za\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">pre-owned marke<\/span>t<\/a>.

Of course, the gas canister bag is a nod to the amount of oil naturally found in the UAE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The iconic oil canister bag is available in plexiglass and a signature quilted leather option along with lambskin leather chain link strap and classic CC engraving.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hula Hoop Chanel Bag<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-6 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"70895\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/hula-hoop-bag.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-70895\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019d be disappointing so many if we didn\u2019t include the iconic hula hoop Chanel bag that shook the fashion world back in 2013.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, if you&#8217;ve never of it before, we\u2019ll break it down for you. For Lagerfeld\u2019s spring\/summer collection, he famously showcased a massive quilted lambskin bag placed within two hula hoops. Although, the late Chanel creative director admitted that this oversized bag is meant to be a beach bag for towels and sunscreen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, this big bag is no longer for sale. However, you can still get your hands on a miniature version in the pre-owned luxury market for around R 19 000.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chanel Spool Minaudi\u00e8re<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-7 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"70896\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/spool-and-thread-bag.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-70896\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you think the previous handbags are ridiculous, prepare to needle the thread on this next one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the fall\/winter collection of 2016, Chanel stitched a handbag shaped like a spool of golden thread. This haberdashery handbag is crafted in resin and shiny gold thread, delicately woven together to shape the bobbin and styled with a leather chain strap and a dangling CC pendant. It&#8217;s also available to open by removing the top lid.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the season is inspired by couture, we must admit, we found this Chanel bag to be the perfect way to celebrate the craft. However, can you imagine spending R 104 000 on a giant needle and thread?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rocket Handbag<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-8 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"70898\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/rocket-bag.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-70898\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This handbag is out of this world, no really, it\u2019s a space rocket shaped bag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the Fall\/Winter\u201917 runway show, the Chanel resin rocket minaudi\u00e8re bag is quilted with a diamond-studded top, the classic CC logo, and chain decoration on the bottom of the rocket to symbolize the rocket\u2019s fire.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To add to the peculiarity, the pointy top may not be the most comfortable to wear but will certainly cost you around R 267 000!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chanel Meat Packaged Flap Bag<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-9 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"70897\" src=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Meat-packaged-chanel-bag.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-70897\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Want your <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/luxity.co.za\/how-to-authenticate-chanel-handbag\/\">authentic Chanel bag<\/a><\/span> to stay fresh all year round?
