Born in 1932 to carry five bottles of champagne.
The Noé was designed in 1932 at the request of a champagne producer who needed a bag to carry five bottles — four standing, one inverted in the middle. The result is fashion’s original bucket bag.
A drawstring closure, trapeze body and shoulder strap define the family, which now spans the original Noé, Petit Noé, Noé BB and Nano Noé.
