Alaïa Vintage Large Black Patent Leather Tote with Strap‑Mounted Mirror and Expandable Top. A striking Alaïa vintage tote crafted in glossy black leather, showcasing the brand's sculptural couture craftsmanship. The exterior features decorative stitching and cut‑out motifs, giving the bag its architectural, iconic Alaïa presence. The silhouette is structured and elegant, with reinforced handles and a dramatic, oversized shape. The bag’s shape is adjustable: when the top clasps are closed, the tote becomes more structured, sculptural, and compact; when the clasps are open, it expands into a larger, more spacious carryall. This transformable design is rare and highly collectible. A standout detail is the mirror integrated into a strap — a sculptural leather‑framed mirror attached inside, exclusive to Alaïa’s late‑1990s/early‑2000s leather goods. This feature appears only on early Alaïa leather goods and is highly sought after by collectors. The interior is lined in smooth tan leather and includes: a zippered pocket, a snap‑button pocket and a slip one, a leather key strap with mirror, and the original ALAÏA PARIS – MADE IN ITALY leather tag. Measurements: Length: 38 cm, Width: 45 cm, Depth: 15 cm (the size is expandable with top clasps on both sides). Color: Black leather exterior, tan leather interior, silver‑tone hardware. Condition: Exterior: excellent. Leather: glossy, minimal wear. Interior: clean (please note a small blue pen mark). Includes Alaïa dust bag. Includes original strap‑mounted mirror.
