Top Handle Vanity Case

Name: Chanel Top Handle Vanity Case Slim
Brand: Chanel

Catalogued July 2026

The Top Handle Vanity Case is Chanel's structured cosmetic-box bag fitted with a short top handle and a chain strap. It is a small, boxy quilted case in caviar or lambskin with a top zip closure and the CC logo, descended from the house's classic vanity cases and reissued across many seasons. Because Chanel identifies its seasonal bags by a style code and season rather than a single official model name, we treat this as a recurring silhouette and hold the introduction year unset.
