The Concept
Our favorite Belgian bag maker has done it again—and this time with a fantastical medieval twist…
Once upon a time in the Kingdom of Belgium, just in time for the holiday season, a mythical tale was crafted from leather and stitching. As Delvaux puts it, the Belgian brand has created a couture collection that is “a new chapter in the saga of a chivalrous, baroque, and fantastical universe that was hinted at in the Autumn-Winter 2017/2018 collection.”
Delving deeper into this story, Delvaux has crafted four beguiling handbags inspired by different background myths. Through craftsmanship and elegant planning, the handbags transport us to a magical realm reminiscent of the mythical series Game of Thrones. Take an exclusive, behind-the-curtain look into the four branches of the collection below—replete with narrative tales and videos. We can’t wait to hear what you think of this exclusive, singularly unique collection.

Black Beauty
The intricate flowers dipped in black of this Black Beauty are meant to bewitch, evoking the “ravishing black heart of an enchantress.”

Golden Glory
With hardware reminiscent of both a sun and a crown, the Golden Glory bag embodies regality, optimism, and excellence.

Iron Shield
Is it just us, or does this Iron Shield bag bear a striking resemblance to the Iron Throne—the Game of Thrones throne that embodies the monarchy that rules the Seven Kingdoms?

Queen's Desire
In a color perfectly suited for female rule, Delvaux’s divine purple Queen’s Desire bag is fit for a queen. Carry this, and you may be among the Game of Thrones likes of Daenerys Targaryen or Margaery Tyrell.

1)loved the videos hehe super creative
2)I think all the bags are pretty but all a little too much for me since I´m more into classics that can be worn with any outfit and until I´m 100 years old… not sure these will be worn 10 years from now… but still, pretty…specially for collectors
3) my fave is Queen´s Desire Brillant
4) they must be quite expensive, so I would stick to CC hehe
