🎨 The Designer's Vision
Launched in 2005 under Phoebe Philo's creative direction, the Chloé Paddington became the defining IT bag of the mid-2000s. The oversized padlock-both functional and decorative-became one of fashion's most recognizable hardware details. Celebrities from Sienna Miller to Kate Moss carried it, cementing its status as a cultural icon.
The brown colorway is quintessentially Chloé-rich, bohemian, and endlessly sophisticated. This bag represents a specific moment in fashion history when IT bags defined status and style in equal measure.
📖 Provenance & Craft
The Paddington features Chloé's signature quilted leather construction-soft, supple, and designed to develop character with age. The brass padlock and key are not just decorative-they're functional, adding weight and substance to the bag's presence. The dual rolled handles are reinforced for durability, while the spacious interior accommodates daily essentials with ease.
This model has been discontinued, making authenticated pieces increasingly rare. Owning a Paddington is owning a piece of 2000s fashion history-a bag that defined an era and continues to influence design today.
