In vintage-style appealed to bag lovers back in 2013 that’s why it was made available in medium and large size. The 2013 version looks antiquated with the top handle and CC clasp making all the difference.

The 2016 version on the other looks ever polished and refined. It looks so fresh that one might think it came straight out of the Chanel’s fashion oven.
