Trapeze

Name: Celine Trapeze Small
Brand: Celine

Catalogued July 2026

The Trapeze is Celine's structured top-handle bag defined by its trapezoid silhouette with flared side wings, a flap front with a metal tab closure, and a removable shoulder strap. It is usually built in a mix of smooth and suede or contrasting color-blocked leathers. Designed by Phoebe Philo and introduced in 2011, it was one of the bags that defined her minimalist era at the house.

Celine authentication: The markers worth checking
The 2018 rebrand dropped the accent, so CÉLINE versus CELINE dates the era, plus the date code, stamp finish, and Triomphe lettering. The accent dates the bag, it does not prove it.
