Coach 1941 MESSENGER BAGS

Reinterpreting emblematic American styles through the romanticized lens of an outsider, British creative director Stuart Vever is at the forefront of Coach’s upscale diffusion line. Launched in 2013 following Vever’s appointment at Loewe, Coach 1941 brings the virtuosic designer’s renowned aesthetic to the house’s long-standing legacy of traditional luxury. Iconic staples like shearling jackets and intarsia knit sweaters accompany utilitarian rose print backpacks and leather studded wallets. Embellished with bold colors, spray-painted artwork, and playful details, Vever’s collections convey a free-spirited youthfulness that compliments that brand’s parent line. The epoch-bending Coach 1941, while laced with nostalgia, reflects the eclectic and varied tastes of contemporary New York.
