Much like a prized ticket to Coachella, the Valentino Garavani Nellcôte bag is an invitation to experience life’s every pulsating beat.

Drawing inspiration from the free-spirited heydays of the late 1960s and early 1970s, the Nellcôte bag embodies boho-chic elegance with a decidedly modern twist. To date, it's already been seen on the arms of celebs the likes of Bella Hadid, Freen Sarocha, Alexa Chung and Hongjoong of South Korean band Ateez.

It’s a bag that’s as much a stylish accessory as it is a companion for life’s untamed moments. Just picture it: soft suede or grainy calfskin cradling embroidered mirrors or geometric jacquards. Or perhaps dimensional flower embellishments dancing across its surface like music notes in a sun-drenched field. Unabashedly hippie, the Nellcôte takes pride in its free spirit and artisanal allure, but does so in a modern design sans retro trappings. Its embellishments add to its character, paired with craftsmanship that offer an irresistible tactility, right at that intersection where artisanal skill meets effortless wearability.

Creative director Alessandro Michele, a maestro in creative storytelling, breathes life into this collection with a campaign soaked in the energy of music festivals. For its visual, photographer Julie Greve depicts friends sprawled on sunlit grass, surrendering to the ease of summer. There’s a pure, youthful vibe to the campaign, with the Nellcôte bearing witness to every carefree embrace of life. Whether slung casually as a crossbody or carried with quiet authority as a tote, this is a bag that celebrates the harmony between emotion and style.

New sizes & pretty prints
The newest additions to the Nellcôte range come in smaller sizes, boasting textures like grained calf and embroidery with whimsical motifs. (Among them bucolic florals, folklore geometry and the Maison’s celebrated Cherryfic design). Expressive and unique, these totes are as versatile as they are charming.

Whether carried through bustling city streets, onto the shifting sands of festival grounds, or propped artfully on the arm of a lounge chair in some clandestine garden party. Make no mistake, the Valentino Garavani Nellcôte bag has no plans to be austere or inconspicuous.It relishes spontaneity and personality, promising to carry your story as vibrantly as the moments you create with it. It’s a bag that is comfortably all frills, and all thrills.
