Bag by Paco Rabanne, c. 1966

Paco Rabanne was best known for his innovative dress designs, but he primarily designed accessories early in his career. Like the plastic and metal Rabanne wedding dress in this section, the metal discs in this handbag redefine what “fabric” can be.

Square handbag made of gold metal discs with punched holes, held together with gold metal rings. Bag has a gold chain shoulder strap.
