History
In 1995, Diana Spencer, also known as Lady Diana, was given a bag by the French First Lady at the time, Bernadette Chirac, during the Paul Cézanne retrospective at the Grand Palais. She is said to have commissioned and had it specially designed for the occasion to showcase French craftsmanship. A few months later, during a trip to Argentina, Lady Diana was seen getting off her plane carrying this famous bag. It thus became her new favorite bag, and she wore it on many occasions. It was subsequently adopted by many other celebrities, including actress Monica Bellucci, singer Carla Bruni, and model Kate Moss. Today, this iconic bag remains highly sought after and has lost none of its charm or elegance.
