Longchamp and Kate Moss

Kate Moss is working on a multi-season handbag line for Longchamp. Now, courtesy of the February 2010 issue of Vogue Paris, we get a look at the goods — which hit stores Feb. 11 — and Kate elaborates on the first collection and her inspirations :

The emerald green pochette, whose color I love, I wanted to be very simple, based on the shape of an envelope. I would wear it with all black or all navy. Because I love to wear dove grey, I wanted a bag in that color to go with my grey jeans. The zebra was inspired by an old pony printed valise from the '70s that my boyfriend brought back from San Francisco, very dry, very trashed, without any glamour, and which I loved. As for the bags in cognac leather, it's a color and a very supple leather that we found in equestrian accessories stores, and we unfortunately can no longer find.
