Furla Metropolis Bag

You can look fabulous without overspending your budget. Meet Furla’s signature handbag, the Metropolis Bag. This bag is charming, fun and has an iconic appearance. It is comparable to the more expensive classic bags like the Chanel Mini Square Flap Bag or the Miss Dior Promenade Pouch, but then without the guilt (of maximizing your credit card). Now let’s talk about the design.

The Design

The signature metal closure

The back

The first thing you noticed about the Metropolis Bag is the signature metal closure. This is a decorative but also a highly recognizable element.

The bag is crafted in square shape and it features a nice curved flap. The jewel-like metal chain feels light and is ladylike while adding a touch of chic’ness to the overall look. The chain can be removed anytime you want.

There are numerous bright and happy colors to choose, so it would be pity if you take the safe road and pick the classic black shade. Mini bags are best worn in cute colors!

Made from cowhide leather, which is also titled by the brand as saffiano leather. Cowhide is a smooth an strong leather.

The Furla Mini Metropolis Bag vs Chanel Mini Square Classic Bag

In terms of shape, the Metropolis Bag does looks quite similar to the Chanel Mini Square Classic Bag. So we compare the size to get a clear view:

The Mini Metropolis Bag is sized: 16.5 x 12 x 8 cm, the Mini Square Classic Bag is sized: 17 x 13.5 x 8 cm. So if you look at the dimension, it’s quite comparable.

The Mini Square Classic Bag is diamond quilted, but do know that Chanel has released a smooth leather version a few months ago.

The Interior

The mini version as well as the small version of this bag are both quite small. The interior can only hold your most important essentials. The inside is simple; there is one large compartment to store your items.
