Traveling with a luxury bag is a pleasure, if you plan ahead. Here are our advisors' tips.
Choose the right bag
- A light, roomy tote such as a Goyard Saint Louis or an Hermès Garden Party for the plane.
- A crossbody such as an Hermès Evelyne or a Chanel Wallet on Chain for sightseeing.
- Grained leathers (Togo, caviar) are more resistant than smooth leathers.
Pack it properly
- Travel with the dust bag and a light bag pillow to keep the shape.
- Never check a precious bag in your luggage: keep it with you.
- Use pouches inside to protect the lining.
Protect it on the go
- Avoid rain and humid places, especially with exotic leathers.
- Keep your bag closed and close to you in crowded areas.
- Keep receipts and documentation for customs if you travel internationally.
