Jacquemus Le Chiquito Bags
Few accessories captured the modern imagination quite like the Jacquemus Le Chiquito. Conceived by Simon Porte Jacquemus as a playful study in proportion, this micro silhouette transformed the humble handbag into a sculptural object of desire, beloved for its sun-warmed palette, soft top handle and quietly subversive scale. Crafted from supple leather and finished with the house's signature restraint, each Le Chiquito carries the romance of Provence into the everyday. Discover the full range of Jacquemus bags and shop this enduring icon at MARAIS.

The Story Behind Jacquemus and Le Chiquito
Founded in 2009 by Simon Porte Jacquemus, the French house takes its name from the designer's mother and draws endlessly on the sunlit landscapes of his native Provence. That sense of place — lavender fields, whitewashed light and an unhurried Mediterranean ease — runs through everything the label creates. Introduced to the runway in 2017, Le Chiquito arrived as a deliberate provocation: a handbag distilled to its smallest, most essential form. It went on to define the micro-bag movement and remains one of the most recognisable accessories in contemporary fashion.

From the original top-handle to the famously diminutive Mini, each piece is crafted in smooth or grained leather and offered across a palette of warm neutrals, deep blacks and seasonal brights. Worn on the wrist or carried by hand, it is a study in considered minimalism — proof that presence has nothing to do with size.
