THE NAME OF CELINE’S NEW CLASSIC COMES FROM THE MAISON DE COUTURE’S PARIS ADDRESS, THE HÔTEL COLBERT, AT 16, RUE VIVIENNE IN THE 2ND ARRONDISSEMENT OF PARIS. THE «16» WAS DESIGNED BY HEDI SLIMANE ON THE FIRST DAY OF HIS ARRIVAL AT CELINE. A DESIGN THAT IS BASED ON THE VERY PARISIAN WAY OF WEARING A BAG. THE «16» RECAPTURES THE CODES OF SOME OF THE MAISON CELINE’S HISTORIC BAGS, FEATURING SPECIFIC 60’S DETAILS SUCH AS THE CROPPED FLAP AS WELL AS ROUNDED AND BELTED EFFECTS. THE FINEST SKINS HAVE BEEN CHOSEN FOR THIS NEW CELINE CLASSIC, INCLUDING THE MOST BEAUTIFUL EXOTIC LEATHERS.
MEDIUM 16 BAG IN GRAINED CALFSKIN WITH A LEATHER HANDLE, A REMOVABLE SHOULDER STRAP, AND AN OUTER FLAT POCKET UNDER THE FLAP. THE BAG HAS A BRASS TWIST LOCK CLOSURE AND A CELINE PADLOCK ON A LEATHER KEY COVER.

- BE CAREFUL NOT TO RUB YOUR BAG AGAINST COARSE OR ABRASIVE SURFACES. LIGHT SCRATCHES CAN ATTENUATE IF GENTLY MASSAGED WITH A SOFT, DRY CLOTH,
