Natalia Vodianova & the MOYNAT Rejane

When I first posted this photo of Natalia this morning, there was no information on the bag she was carrying. A quick email to M. Davin and he promptly replied that they were thinking of calling it

Réjane

 Named after a Belle Époque actress, Gabrielle Réjane, she was a dear friend of Pauline Moynat. Pauline used to design trunks for the actress' theatre performances at the Comédie-Française. It is interesting to note that in the 1890's, there was already a Moynat bag with this name. 
 Slated to be released in time for Christmas, this delightful shoulder and handheld city bag is sure to win the hearts of Moynat's growing followers. I believe that Mademoiselle Gabrielle would highly approve!

MOYNAT Initial Canvas goes casual chic!

Wow, I am very excited with this new colour from Moynat.  Inspired by denim blue jeans, this is the perfect reincarnation of Henri Rapin's monogram design that makes it young and current. It's truly amazing how a simple colour change can reinvent the look.  Currently it is only available in the Virage (as far as I know) and I can't wait for it to translate into bags.
