Product Insights
The Croissant Filt Mesh Bag by Lemaire, a collaboration with the 1860-founded Filt netting manufacturer, is entirely made in France using Rachel lace looms, with each bag signed by its seamstress. Its crescent silhouette and slouchy drape echo the iconic Croissant bag, while a removable inner pouch converts into a standalone mini crossbody. The mesh is heat-resistant, stretch-proof, fade-resistant, and quick-drying, but the bag cannot fit a 13-inch laptop, accommodating only smaller items. Worn crossbody, it contours to the hip and pairs with any outfit, gaining cultural clout via Blackpink Jennie. At $625 CAD, it is the least expensive Croissant but yields two bags through its detachable pouch.
