Coach has continued its commitment to tradition by following last year’s Classics collection with its new Legacy line.
The comprehensive range features timeless handbags alongside small leather goods, technology cases, footwear, hats, apparel, and even office desk accessories. Each piece celebrates classic design, although the pretty color palette, which includes some fun shades like coral pink and aquamarine, give the items a fun youthful feel.
Many designs like the women’s bucket bag and men’s rucksack take their cues from designs in Coach’s archives. However even these items have been modernized with more contemporary shapes and hues, and fun details like oversized tassels.
There’s a lot to like in this line. It’s rare to find a female-focused fashion house creating so many products for men. The gorgeous rainbow of colors is also perfect for spring. And isn’t it great to see more Coach handbags free of that unsightly signature print of old? We also can’t argue with the prices. A small purse will set you back just $178, and many of the flagship handbag styles cost between $250 and $300.
The Legacy collection is slated to hit Coach’s American stores in August. Hopefully its boutiques in other countries won’t be too far behind!
