LOOK: These bags are for chic women on the go

Longchamp reinvents another classic, and it comes in neutrals and vibrant hues


Almost every woman has owned at least one of Longchamp’s iconic nylon Le Pliage totes. But if you’re looking for something different from the French brand, the Le Roseau line is worth considering.

Introduced in the ‘90s, Le Roseau—meaning “reed” in French—features an elegant signature bamboo toggle in silver hardware, inspired by the button of a duffle coat. This toggle makes it easier to open and close the bags, making them a stylish and convenient choice for many. Over the past three decades, it has become a classic favorite, celebrated for its sleek design that perfectly suits the chic woman on the go.

So whether you’re a classic lady or a vibrant girl, there is at least one bag that will match your personality and lifestyle.

“I love my Le Roseau bag because it’s the perfect blend of style and functionality,” Sobrevega says. “Even though it’s small and chic, it holds all my essentials, like my mini camera, phone, and makeup. Its elegant look and practical design make it a must-have for any occasion. It has definitely become my new favorite.”

“The simplicity and elegance of these bags make them easy to style with my wardrobe,” Garcia adds. “I also love the signature bamboo clasp and the beautiful colors featured in this collection.”

With the unveiling of the latest Le Roseau collection comes a fresh look for the Longchamp stores in the Philippines. The spacious storefront features beautifully styled displays that attract customers eager to explore Longchamp’s leather goods and accessories. Cream-colored walls, wooden shelves and tables, cozy plush velour seats, and thoughtfully positioned warm lighting create an inviting atmosphere that puts the bags in the spotlight.
