Meet Bonnie, your new anytime, anywhere bag
Get resort-ready with a capsule collection of CALVIN KLEIN 205W39NYC bags, available exclusively at NET-A-PORTER
CALVIN KLEIN 205W39NYC is an all-American classic, a label with a rich heritage and loyal following; ever since Belgian designer Raf Simons joined as Chief Creative Officer in 2016, it’s had a fresh injection of game-changing fashion credibility and contemporary cool, too. Now, the label is one of the most buzzed-about brands in the industry, and thanks to the standout runway shows, its ready-to-wear offering garners most of the attention – think patch pocket Western shirts, heritage checked coats and streamlined tailoring.
But CALVIN KLEIN 205W39NYC has long been a go-to for irresistible accessories, too. Case in point: the label has conjured a new capsule collection of handbags, available exclusively at NET-A-PORTER for one month only. The collection hinges around the new Bonnie bag, one that you’ll immediately want to be on first-name-basis with. Whether you prefer the top handle or the shoulder iteration, this bag encapsulates everything you know and love about CALVIN KLEIN 205W39NYC’s signature aesthetic: the shapes are streamlined, slick, minimal and modern. Taking cues from the ready-to-wear collection, the designs feature marching band stripes (mirroring the brand's uniform-inspired pants), as well as the ‘205’ logo, which has been engraved on the metallic hardware (inspired by the label’s cult roll necks). And since pared-back doesn’t equal boring, the bags come in a smorgasbord of shades, from classic tan and pristine white to sherbet orange.
As well as nailing the aesthetics, this label has a knack for functionality, which means your chosen Bonnie will be on day-to-day rotation. The shoulder bag is big enough to hold all your essentials without slowing you down, and just the thing to see you through a day at the office followed by an evening out; simply add a pleated skirt, oversized sweater and a pair of stand-out heels. The top handle bag, meanwhile, will neatly accommodate your laptop, your makeup bag and anything else you care to throw in it, while still looking effortlessly and elegantly polished, whether you’re off-duty or headed for the boardroom. Both designs come with detachable shoulders straps, too, ensuring complete versatility. And because the bags have timeless appeal, they’ll blend seamlessly with any trends that you choose to embrace, from masculine tailoring and scene-stealing dresses to bold prints and colorful chunky knits – anytime, anywhere.
