Bauhaus & Beat: modernity and craft combined

For the Autumn-Winter season, there are two distinctive collections from Cheet – Bauhaus and Beat. The handbags are designed to fill the gap of providing contemporary, stylish and practical handbags, rich with personality.  As with each new season, the overall look is a clear and distinctive progression from the season before.  Bauhaus and Beat are charged with sumptuous details, luxurious leathers in compelling colours.

Blending artisan’s skills with contemporary design was a core component of the collection. The inspiration for this season was therefore not based upon a single object or idea but rather a vision to create a collection of handbags, suitable for an active, urban set but seemingly laden with spirit. 

Highlights of the Beat Collection - An organic palette of aubergine, amber and olive, tanned into velvet-soft lambs leather to form the basis of this collection.  Intrigue is fuelled with the use of traditional craftsmen techniques such as ‘macrame’ to fashion the handles of the Ella and Mia bags.  Each handle is woven by hand, creating textural excitement.

Mia Bag – achingly soft and slouchy, the gathered shape and exquisite details make this a must-have piece of the season.  
Ella Bag– a more structured bag, the Ella has a contemporary, chic appeal.  Multiple pockets make this stylish piece very practical too.
Kay Clutch– the darling of the collection, it’s styling with piping and contrast colours makes it the perfect party piece.

Highlights of the Bauhaus Collection – The natural irregular grain and weightiness of the goat leather in the Bauhaus group, renders the bags in this group, truly luxurious.  Timeless black, bronze and plum hues, are complimented by the eye-catching, lattice pipe-work in mocha/latte, chocolate/duck egg and lavender/blush.

Millie Shoulder – a transition bag from day to night, the Millie is multi-pocketed, practical and amazingly light in weight.  It’s handle is worn comfortably on the shoulder and adorned with lattice pipe-work.

MOD Holdall – a sharp business bag or small overnight bag, the MOD is an investment piece.  Worn as a grab bag or slung with it’s detachable shoulder strap.  Signature Bauhaus finishes make it a must-have.
