Swipe bags are not a new design from Coperni. But if these bags with transparent glass material just caused a fever last year, this year Coperni continues to make it more special with materials from lunar meteorites.

Coperni continues to innovate the fashion game with the fossil bag

For a long time, the leading duo of Copernicus has constantly caused a stir in the fashion world with groundbreaking, somewhat crazy initiatives that no one can imagine. The French brand continuously went viral on social networks with car fashion shows, a dress made from paint finished in 5 minutes right on stage, and robot dogs frolicking on the catwalk…

Now, the French fashion house continues to bring a new idea down the street: Fossil bags. Hard to believe but true, Coperni seems to be changing the game in the fashion world!

The Mini Meteorite Swipe Bag is the latest design from the Coperni catwalk. Coperni’s new bag is described by creative directors Arnaud Vaillant and Sébastien Meyer as “a lunar fossil that fell to earth 55,000 years ago, found in France in 1968 and carved in 2023.”. Mini Meteorite Swipe Bag possesses materials from the Stone Age, but currently, no fashion house can exploit these materials.

Particularly, this version of the Mini Meteorite Swipe Bag will be different when each bag has a unique feature, a different size, depending on the shape of the meteorite material. And this unique material will also make the accessory weigh up to 2kg, which is not very convenient to go down the street. But for the Mini Meteorite Swipe Bag, Coperni only seems to aim for creativity and disruption when showing that fashion can be combined with everything, including archeology.

This handbag by Coperni can be likened to a dark gray “rock”, part of a limited edition made from a meteorite that fell to earth 55,000 years ago (100% certified to be 100% authentic). authentic products by the research and testing center Theatrum Mundi) carried on the street. The bags are completely handmade and because they are made to order only, the material can come from different places. But all will be delivered to Coperni’s workshop and crafted by artisans at the Italian factory Semar.

The cheapest price of a bag from 40,000 euros and this number varies depending on the meteorite that made the bag. Not only the price is outrageous, but the bag also requires the buyer to be patient as it has a lead time of up to 6 weeks.

This is not the first time Coperni has released a Swipe Bag model made of such an exotic material. At the Fall/Winter 2022 show, Meyer once designed a bag made entirely of glass for Doja Cat, Tinashe, and Kylie Jenner and then used one with a special edition. Or in the Spring Summer 2023 collection, Swipe Bag was created by designers with a completely gold material and is being sold for 100,000 euros.

This is the intention, of a new game created by Coperni to promote its products. The mist dress, a performance that has gone down in history, was part of a very specific marketing strategy that Coperni worked on. Undeniably, those bold thoughts have helped the brand achieve special achievements, especially attracting the attention of not only the fashion world but also the public around the world, and Coperni has doubled. profits in 2021. This year, with meteors from the Moon, will Coperni continue to master his game?
