Carmen

Carmen

Carmen is the ultimate work bag. With its very stylish magnetic side fastenings, this spacious bag has an extra-large main compartment, inside zip pocket, open pen pockets and magnetic central closure. It also features two large zip pockets either side, large enough for an A4 folder. Available in two leather types and a selection of colours.

The design brief for the Carmen was create a bag which is not only extremely practical but also elegant and understated. Lalage designed the Carmen style of bag to ensure a laptop would fit, and/or an A4 folder, along with all the other things that you sometimes need to carry around for business meetings etc. The long side-zip pockets, either side of the very spacious central compartment, are easily big enough for either. The central compartment can even accommodate a pair of shoes if necessary and there is an additional zip pocket for valuables. Short shoulder straps guarantee it is very comfortable and easy to carry, even when loaded up with everything you need for work. Lalage also made the conscious choice to keep the bag largely unbranded and subtle in its timeless style. When it came to the name, as with the rest of the handbag colleciton, Lalage has named it after a classical ballet, one of her passions in life. Our leather handbags should be cleaned with natural leather balm and a soft cloth to maintain the colour and enhance their natural patina. If the bag becomes wet in the rain, it should be wiped with a towl or a tissue and left to dry away from direct heat. When not being used, please store your Lalage Beaumont handbag in a cool place in the dust bag we provide.
