In 2014, iconic American design house, Coach, launched a collaboration with the classic comic franchise, Peanuts. The collection, which consisted of bags and accessories decorated with illustrations of the much-beloved Peanuts characters, proved a resounding success. It sold out almost instantly, much to the disappointment of many a Peanuts-loving handbag fan who was unable to have an order fulfilled due to such high demand.
Now there is good news for those who were disappointed the last time - and even those who weren't. Customers will be pleased to know that Coach has decided once again to partner with the Peanuts franchise and launch another handbag and accessories line. This time around, the all-leather items in the collection are more pared-down, refined, and sophisticated. There is a limited five color palette available: black, tan, ivory, blue, and yellow leathers make up the whole of the collection, with the yellow leather reserved especially for leather goods with the likeness of the ever-popular Woodstock character. Instead of repeating last year's illustrated designs, the company has decided to go with a silhouette-like appliqué on each of the bags. This collection is definitely more day-to-day wearable than last year's illustrated collection, and while the sleek, minimalist designs have a carry-anywhere appeal, it is the small, finely-tuned silhouette details that remind anyone who cares to notice that the fashion world enjoys a bit of light-heartedness once in a while too.
The Coach + Peanuts collection launched on the 10th of June, and once again will only be available while supplies last.
