With every new season comes the opportunity to revamp your wardrobe—whether it’s finding unique ways to style pieces you already own or adding a statement accessory to switch up your look. This spring, we have our eyes on an iconic ’90s handbag that’s been reinvented for modern life. Introducing Maison Longchamp’s Le Roseau.

Since its inception three decades ago, Le Roseau has been in constant demand thanks to its timeless design and signature bamboo-inspired toggle. Now, the fresh design is softer, more feminine and more refined than ever before with multiple new sizes and seven new colours, including beautiful neutrals, bright shades and muted tones to suit every style.  

Le Roseau Is The Perfect Piece For Your Spring Refresh  

Winter is for layering, spring is all about experimenting with new colours, silhouettes and outfit formulas, but you don’t need to invest in a whole new wardrobe to play with your personal style. Instead, simply add one statement accessory that can be mixed and matched with a variety of looks—from day to night—to inject fresh energy into your style.   
 
Look to this’ season’s strongest trends for inspiration. Understated luxury (coupled with minimalist design) is a recurring theme with the style set. A timeless style will last seasons longer than an ‘it’ bag with limited shelf life. The sleek lines and subtle elegance of Le Roseau, crafted in elegant soft grain leather, makes it a staple in any wardrobe.

We’ve also seen a return to iconic, heritage brands. Established in 1948 in Paris, France, Longchamp is a brand with a rich heritage that has stood the test of time. Le Roseau is a modern take on a lasting design that’s resonated with generations of women, the moment it launched three decades ago as an open tote secured with a bamboo clasp—which gives it the ‘roseau’ of the name.

A Modern Update For A ’90s Cult Classic  

Designed to be carried in the hand or on the shoulder, Le Roseau has adapted to our changing lifestyles with a variety of sizes to suit our needs. Choose the larger size to accommodate a laptop, or size down to the extra small bag for a night out when all you need is your phone and a lip gloss.

It’s also been reinvented in seven unique colours. Choose from timeless neutrals (Clay, Paper, Black and Chestnut) and vibrant hues (Green Light, Celadon and Orange) to add a little je ne sais quois to your spring style.
