Dua Lipa recently brought a particularly large Chanel bag to JFK Airport, putting the focus on a tote that is notable for its proportions, construction and unmistakable resort appeal. The oversized raffia bag is from Chanel's Cruise 2027 collection, according to W Magazine.
The striped tote features a nautical-inspired color palette, raffia construction, leather handles and Chanel's oversized interlocking CC logo. W Magazine describes it as one of the biggest statement pieces from the Cruise 2027 collection, which was presented in Biarritz and drew on the house's seaside heritage.
While its size makes it an unusual choice for an airport, the bag also highlights the appeal of oversized luxury totes as travel companions. Rather than focusing on the celebrity carrying it, the more interesting question is what makes a large designer bag useful when moving through an airport.
