The design secrets of the Balenciaga Rodeo bag - The New It Bag
Launched in February 2024, the bag is named after the famous street in the Beverly Hills neighborhood, Rodeo Drive, an iconic crossroads of luxury and fashion.
Since it appeared on the catwalks, everyone has dreamed of it. First in the hands of Kim Kardashian , the Balenciaga Rodeo bag is now available to the general public — to our greatest pleasure.
If its tote shape evokes that of large luxury bags, its unique construction makes it even more the object of all desire. Designed for versatile use, its slanted design makes it easier to carry by leaving the front compartment intentionally open - for a deliberately nonchalant aesthetic - while reinforced side snap buttons on the pleats allow the bag to be expanded as needed. Featuring two spacious compartments lined with premium lambskin, the accessory also features two patch pockets on the back, discreet logos on the double lock closure and, inside, a thin leather strap closed by carabiners and four bottom feet.
Made from calfskin that requires exceptional know-how in tanning, finishing and cutting, the Rodeo gradually develops a patina over time to better improve. The worn creases, softened piping and raw edges of the upper part of the bag give the impression of a bag carried daily for an extended period of time, with subtle marks suggesting the passage of time. You choose it according to the format, colors and finishes of your choice: small, medium or large format, in black, gray or white leather, with gold or silver metal finishes.
Aficionados of the House will be able to obtain the exceptional collector's versions, accompanied by an assortment of charms including a heart-shaped leather mirror, a set of heart-shaped carabiners, a chain of padlocks and keys, souvenir style key ring and a leather Balenciaga name tag holder. Essential for any fashion lover who deserves it.
