Finally, a real purpose for tiny designer bags | Lifestyle.INQ

OCTOBER 27, 2022

In 2019, we asked what we could fit in a Jacquemus Mini Le Chiquito bag. We memed our way through the different answers: the amount of Fs you give, your patience, a mini-lipstick.

On the same year but in a different realm of culture, Apple released the Airpods Pro. It’s not the first wireless earphones in history but it boasted more power than its predecessor in a case that measured 45.2 x 21.7 x 60.6 mm.

These seemingly unconnected events triggered something. Click “Small Leather Goods” on any major brand’s website today, and you’ll find, among coin purses and cardholders, tiny bags specifically for your Airpods. It’s not a novelty for a season; it’s a staple for almost every collection.

Techies will argue about Apple’s influence, but you know a gadget is on a different level when it manages to create its own niche in fashion.
