The piece in detail

The Vanity is the most quietly useful bag Chanel makes. Descended from the cosmetic cases the house sold alongside its fragrances in the 1960s, it has been reworked as a small structured box with a chain strap — the practicality of a train case with none of its bulk. This example is finished in black crocodile-embossed calfskin, a treatment Chanel reserves for a handful of pieces each season, and it changes the character of the bag completely: the raised scale pattern catches light across the flat panels and gives the little box a presence far beyond its size. Gold-tone hardware is the correct pairing. The chain, the interlocking CC turnlock and the top handle all read warm against black, and the embossing keeps the metal from looking too polite. Structure is the other argument for this model — the sides hold their shape whether the bag is full or empty, so it never sags on the shoulder or collapses on a table. Inside, the Vanity does what the classic flap cannot: it opens flat and stays open. A phone, cardholder, keys, lipstick and a compact all sit visible rather than buried, which is why the model has quietly become the everyday choice of clients who own three flaps and reach for none of them. The chain drops to shoulder length and can be doubled for a shorter carry, or removed entirely to use the piece as a clutch. Dated 2026 and in excellent condition throughout, this Vanity is priced at £5,200 and is available now.
