The lowdown on Celine's 'Luggage'


Alright guys, we've all seen Mary Kate (or is it Ashley?) with her black Celine, but no matter how much you search there is limited information available on the net. so let me share some info I've found out over the past week after calling countless numbers of Celine stores worldwide. There are FOUR different sizes of the 'Luggage':

mini (what MK is carrying) and this

Small (30cm x 30cm x 17cm)

Medium (38cm x 40cm x 18cm)

Large (45cm x 45cm x 23cm)

You can find most of the different coloursways on Celine's website, and I've also compiled them here. The good news is that there are more colours available in stores:


'Luggage' in Beige & Natural Python Medium

'Luggage' Electric Blue Python Medium

'Luggage' Rust Python Mini

Prices vary according to sizes and materials. If you're into exotics, expect to spend about €1900 for a Small python, €2500 for the medium python, and €12000 upwards for the croc. I'm not sure about you but I am so terribly confused as to which colours to choose that I am taking a very long time to get back to the SAs I called (and it makes me feel extremely guilty).

Call up your nearest branch:
Milan - Marzia
Victor Hugo Paris - Herve
Geneva - Juliette
US - Doris
Harrods - Yoann
Selfridges - Ethav

..and feel free to hit me up via email or leave comments if you'd like more info.

  1. I certainly understand that it's hard to pick out a colourway, they are all gorgeous. The khaki/black in the second picture from jak & jil is probably my favourite of the ones you posted, with both of the blue ones coming in second. Good luck chosing!

  3. I haven't bought it yet, will do it when I head over to the UK in summer. The ones in sg are quite overpriced though, by about 800 bucks, I don't know why.

  4. OMGOSH I just bought the blue mini one today from David Jones in Melbourne, it cost me AUD$2295. Do you know how much it is in sg for the mini one?

    THANKS :)

  5. Oh my I'd love to see it! I think the mini might be somewhere around SG$2500 because I remember the small one was costing $3,050. What other colours/sizes do David Jones have?

  6. I've seen the large one in Black too but they might replace the mini I bought with another colour, I will go check it on the weekend and will inform you :)

  7. That's really kind of you but you really don't have to if you can't. I would head over myself but I'm so tied down with exams and right after that I'm heading over to UK so I won't even have time to check it out at all. Thanks again by the way.

  11. Hi Anon, the prices of the bags sold in Europe are standardised. I was referring to the ones sold in Singapore. Hope that helps

  12. Hi - I've been lusting over (and looking for) this bag for months. Would you happen to know where it is stocked in Australia? Or online?

  13. Hi there,

    David Jones in Melbourne has one or two of them, and so does the designer boutique in Brisbane (can't remember the name though), and it has an online store. I have to warn you that they are more expensive than buying them overseas. You can purchase it through the phone directly from any European store, if you don't mind going through a bit of a trouble. Hope that helps.

  14. Omg! I am in love with this bag.
    Such a beauty.
    do u happen to know how much is the mini in US dollars in black and beige?

    ReplyDelete
  15. Hi there, the black is actually more like very dark navy. I believe the mini is between $1450-$1600. Last time I received an update from the US store they just stocked up on the royal blue in small and beige in mini. Look for Doris in the US store, she is extremely friendly and helpful.

  16. how I can buy the boston tote bag medium? please help me!

    ReplyDelete
  17. Hi there, depending on your location you should call up a store closest to you, or any European store works fine too. The medium size is not available online so far, I believe.

  18. Hi babes, thanks for the list! But do you by any chance have their email addresses?

    Oh and what is the price range for the mini?

    Thankyouuuu! :) Been searching for this bag in orange or red for like FOREVERRRR and it seems to be sold out everywhere :(

  20. I am going to London & Paris in 3 weeks. Anyone knows whether Selfridges, Harrods or Paris store has the Mini Luggage in Rust Phython. It is last season's but I love that color. This season's color on Celine's website is not as exciting.

  21. Hi Rebecca, I believe Harrods did not carry it, nor Selfridges. You can try calling all the stores to see what other colourways they stock that is not on the website

  24. David Jones Elizabeth St, Bourke St Mall and Claremont all stock Celine - only retailer in Australia. I got my mini luggage in the royal this afternoon and it was $2,100. This is a little more expensive than Europe but they sell out everywhere so who cares?!
