The 2024 Spring/Summer collection from German luxury brand AIGNER is inspired by a popular movement from more than a century ago.
The love for detail and craftsmanship has always been a hallmark of the AIGNER brand.
And it is even more evident in the new Arts and Crafts Leather Collection Spring/Summer 2024 which takes its inspiration from the ‘Arts and Crafts Movement’ from more than a century ago.
That was an international trend in the decorative and fine arts, focusing on craftsmanship, simplicity, utility and natural beauty, which flourished in Europe and North America between 1880 and 1920.
The return to craftsmanship and original and high-quality materials defined that movement.
Meanwhile, AIGNER, which was founded in Munich in 1965, sees itself as a German brand with an Italian soul.
And the bags in the Spring/Summer 2024 collection are an ode to the craftsmanship and elegance that is deeply rooted in the Italian aesthetic.
Every movement, every seam tells a story of precision and dedication. The natural beauty of materials is emphasised in the designs.
The joy of detailed craftsmanship is reflected in the luxurious specials of the classic series. Leathery tones like Coal Brown, Warm Taupe or Resin Yellow are accompanied by the strong Garbanzo Yellow and Luxe Blue.
Also, designs from the AIGNER archive are reissued in a contemporary manner, using sustainably-produced leather and follow the idea of the late 19th century-early 20th century movement of using high-quality natural materials.
CYBILL SPECIAL
The theme of the collection is reflected in the CYBILL artistic specials.
The CYBILL Bag Edge to Edge is decorated with ornaments in the shape of a horseshoe, which are intricately hand-stitched, edge to edge.
And the CYBILL Bag Trapunto is adorned with an A-logo stitching while the CYBILL Bag Stretch from the last collection will be back. Also, after its great success, the landscape format is now also available as the CYBILL Bag Stretch Mini.
The entire CYBILL series is available in the seasonal colours Tanned Yellow, Luxe Blue and Coal Brown.
TRIA
The expressive TRIA series dispenses with opulent embellishments and focuses on finely crafted, subtle details such as the metallic hangers with leather inlays or the magnetised logo lock, which emphasises the handcrafted aspect through the use of leather.
The series comes in muted Resin Yellow, Coal Brown and Black.
CELESTE
Inspired by a bag from the AIGNER archive, the CELESTE series comes in the classic top handle format and as a landscape-format crossbody bag in smooth leather and in a textile edition in Icon Jacquard.
The classic Cognac and Burgundy colours give the series its retro character.
SELENA
A timeless classic has been created with the new SELENA series: whether a casual hobo bag or an elegant handbag for business, the series offers a suitable model for every occasion.
A special detail is the newly-interpreted leather buckle in the shape of a horseshoe, which is not only a sophisticated design element, but also serves as the bag’s closure. The metal parts of the series are wrapped in leather, creating a clear focus on the natural material.
NOVA
An AIGNER vintage model from the 1990s was the inspiration for the new NOVA series. Its reduced, clear design language in combination with the statement handles in a horseshoe shape makes the series the embodiment of the Silent Luxury Trend.
SPARKLE SPECIALS
The specials of the DIADORA, ALONA and LEELOO series embody craftsmanship and attention to detail.
The ALONA Bag Sparkle is covered with black satin on which hundreds of sparkling rhinestones have been placed by hand. The DIADORA Bag Sparkle is also creatively finished with rhinestones in the A-logo design.
The handbag model of the LEELOO series appears completely in silver or gold metallic leather and is called LEELOO Bag Deluxe.
ALESSANDRO
With the ALESSANDRO line, the men‘s collection is complemented by an elegant and, at the same time, contemporary series. The house’s Icon Jacquard is combined with trimmings in smooth leather. The series consists of a backpack and two crossbody bags.
