Handbag addiction is a scary thing indeed. Still we love to love handbags! And now, I’m sharing some of my favorite Goyard pieces. For those who aren’t familiar with the label, here’s a brief background on Goyard.
La Maison Goyard was founded in 1853 in Paris. Edmé Goyard worked as a malletier for a company then known as Maison Morel (founded in 1792), which his son, François, bought out in 1853. At that time, the company was renamed Goyard. In the past, the Grand Duke of Russia, the Maharajah de Kapurthala, The Duke and Duchess of Windsor and many aristocratic families, all travelled with Goyard luggage; and their special orders have always been an important part of Goyard’s reputation. Goyard is known for its hard-sided trunks and small accessories. All pieces are covered in a signature hand-painted patented chevron canvas made of cotton, linen, and hemp and displayed in various colors. The chevron canvas was created in 1892; and was traditionally produced in black and red. Other famous clients have included: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Madonna, Karl Lagerfeld, Gregory Peck, Pablo Picasso, Gary Cooper, Debra Messing, Kanye West, John D. Rockefeller, and Lupe Fiasco. – from Wikipedia.
I personally love the Saint Louis and Jeanne women’s handbags. I also love their steamer, jersey, and croisiere luggage bags. Croisiere is like the LV Speedy bag or the LV Keepall luggage. The size 18 or 35 of Croisiere is great for daily use… On the other hand if you’re going to need an all-around everyday bag, I suggest the Saint Louis. My favorite colors of the Saint Louis are the ones marked with a check… I know I checked a lot… hehe… If I can only afford all those… haha. Mind you, the Saint Louis GM is priced at about $1,000.
