The Karl Lagerfeld Paris Savoie Small Leather Crossbody in Black is the sleek, high-contrast counterpart to the white version. It shifts the bag's aesthetic from a soft daytime vibe to a sharp, classic "rocker-chic" edge that is highly signature to the late Karl Lagerfeld’s personal brand.
Key Specifications & Design Details
- Colorway: Midnight black smooth leather paired with striking silver-tone hardware (zippers, magnetic snaps, and chain links). The deep black color allows the polished silver accents to stand out dynamically.
- Material: Built with a premium, smooth 100% cow leather upper, structured polyvinyl chloride (PVC) backing to hold its shape, and a durable fabric canvas lining.
- Dimensions: Approximately 8" W x 5.5" H x 3.5" D ($20.3\text{ cm} \times 14\text{ cm} \times 8.9\text{ cm}$). It has a rigid, compact mini-silhouette.
- Style/Reference Number: LH4EW2DP (Color variant code: C01)
Core Structural Features
- Convertible Carry Options: It features a built-in, distinct double silver chain top handle for carrying it as a structured hand pouch or over the forearm. It also comes with a matching removable, adjustable crossbody strap (offering an approximate 23" to 24" strap drop) for hands-free utility.
- Branding Elements: Features a clean, sophisticated embossed Karl Lagerfeld Paris logo centered on the front folding flap, maintaining a minimalist look without relying on oversized prints.
- Secure Closure: Utilizes a secure, hidden magnetic snap fastening under the front flap to keep your belongings protected.
Interior & Exterior Organization
Like its white counterpart, the Black Savoie acts as a hybrid bag-and-wallet combo, making it highly functional for night-out essentials:
- Exterior: Includes 1 quick-access back slip pocket perfect for a smartphone, transit card, or receipts.
- Interior: A fully canvas-lined main compartment equipped with 1 internal slip pocket and 5 integrated card slots, eliminating the need to fit a full-sized wallet inside.
Fabric Care & Maintenance
One of the biggest advantages of the black leather colorway is its resilience—it hides everyday dust, fingerprints, and minor scuffs much better than lighter shades. Karl Lagerfeld Paris recommends spot-cleaning with a soft, clean dry cloth and keeping it safely tucked inside its fabric dust bag when not in use to preserve the smooth leather finish.
