Twenty years after its debut in the Chloé S/S 05 show by Phoebe Philo, the Paddington bag is back. The iconic handbag returned on the runway in Chemena Kamali's autumn and winter 2025 collection and in-the-know shoppers quickly joined the wait list for the reissued Paddington bags at Chloé. Now, it's officially back in
We're in the midst of a nostalgia-fueled moment in fashion, and it's ushering in the rise of archival styles, so it makes sense that Chloé would bring back one of its most beloved handbags to mark its 20th anniversary. After its original release, it was carried by It girls of the aughts, including Lindsay Lohan and Mischa Barton, and in 2025, it will be tucked under the arms of a new set of insiders. With autumn's arrival imminent, there's no time like the present to secure this season's It bag before it inevitably sells out.
The Original Debut of the Chloé Paddington in 2005
The Chloé Paddington bag was debuted on the brand's S/S 05 runway. The cult handbag went on to be one of the most popular styles of the decade.
