Bvlgari and fashion brand Casablanca collaborate for a bag collection

Innovative partnerships concerning large jewellery maisons and their friends in trend have generally been a rare occurrence.

And that is why Bvlgari collectors have come to search ahead to the most current capsule of the Roman house’s ongoing collaborative bag selection “Serpenti By means of the Eyes Of”, which has viewed the likes of Nicholas Kirkwood, Alexander Wang, and just final 12 months, Mary Katrantzou. 

This time, the vogue household roped in to reinterpret the mythical Bulgari Serpenti icon is up to date Parisian model Casablanca. Just picture what you’d get when Bvlgari’s spirit of mai troppo (“never too much” in Italian) meets the je nai sais quoi (“that particular something” in French) of Casablanca. The final result is fireworks: two sub-ranges with entirely different aesthetics that share a chic playfulness and modern glamour. In full, the capsule capabilities seven creations across the Après Tennis Story and the Mosaic Story, each inspired by Casablanca’s leisurewear-satisfies-the Mediterranean DNA. 

Casablanca’s French-Moroccan founder and artistic director Charaf Tajer, explains his vision: “With Bvlgari we share the similar love and respect for timeless codes and the ambition to interpret them in new strategies: This is the prism we have performed with on this collaboration. The collection is both equally modern and vintage at the exact time. The Serpenti has a thousand-year aged iconography guiding it and we preferred to bring it back again when extra but in a present day way, actively playing with its aesthetic functions.”  

The Après Tennis line references the sport’s common look and graphic style components, with a distinctive combination of white perforated leather, environmentally friendly accents, gold-plated hardware and unparalleled wood handles. The 4 luggage from this sub-array exude a sense of simplicity and effortless magnificence. The bag in the traditional Serpenti Eternally form, flaunting the emblematic snakehead closure, comes with a detachable wooden handle and removable crossbody leather strap for maximum versatility. 

There is also a boxy sculptural bag termed the Jewelry Box, which is inspired by a Bvlgari Heritage Assortment silver box of the ’20s. This particular version showcases distinct prime conjuring the various facets of a cherished gemstone. There is also a roomy and realistic Tote Bag with a shoulder strap, and a nifty mini Crossbody Bag. 

The 2nd Mosaic line is deeply joined to Bvlgari’s identity steeped in Rome’s superb splendour. Encouraged by the spellbinding mosaics that pave quite a few of the Eternal City’s most fascinating villas and landmarks, the three luggage search like veritable performs of art. Fusing a present-day neo-classicism with Casablanca’s trademark getaway feel, they showcase a vibrant textured print that convey the 3-dimensional texture of historic tiles.  

Like their Après Tennis counterparts, the Mosaic Serpenti Without end Bag has a removable wood cope with and removable leather-based strap, although the Tote Bag and mini Crossbody Bag also appear in the exact same form and construction.
