Hourglass

Demna’s sculpted signature — the curved base that reshaped the flap bag.

Introduced for Winter 2019 as one of Demna’s first major handbag statements, the Hourglass is named for its silhouette: a rigid flap bag whose base curves dramatically upward at each end.

The sharp B-logo clasp and structured calfskin define the family, from the Mini through XS, Small and Medium, plus soft “Cagole-era” treatments in crushed and studded leathers.

Expert reviews

What owners sayI love the structured croc-stamped look and versatile straps, but the small size won't fit sunglasses alongside my wallet, phone and keys.

What experts sayA fabulous, no-fuss structured bag and a refined alternative to slouchy hobos, though you should size up if you carry a lot.
