Celebrated for their bold, trendsetting, 100% cruelty-free, vegan fashion designs, the stunning Stella McCartney® handbags are a highlight of
the Stella McCartney® collections. The Stella McCartney® Falabella bag, made of vegan leather, with whipstitched chain trim and slouchy
body, is one such iconic ethical product, produced in many different sizes and models.
The Falabella chain trim is the part of the bag actually
patented. Specifically, three US design patents have been assigned to Stella McCartney Ltd., for the whipstitched Falabella bag chain trim:
- USD646894S titled Chain trim detail for handbags and the like
- USD654691S titled Chain trim detail for handbags and the like
- USD706540S titled Handbag with chain trim
The Figure1, appearing below, was extracted from the US design patent USD706540S. The broken lines of the chain trim indicate that the chain can be of various lengths, whereas the breaks on the horizontal bottom and top whipstitched edge indicate that the bag can have varying widths. The dotted outline of the bag indicates that the shape of the bag is unclaimed. In fact, the patent specifies that “the handbag is depicted for environment purposes only". Images of two marketed embodiments of the Falabella bag are also included, in particular, a large blue Falabella tote with silver chain, and a mini Falabella tote with gold chain trim.
