The most recent in a line of single-use carry-ons, the One Bottle Case comes assembled with the manufacturer’s signature anodized “rilled” aluminum in classic matte silver, complete with a black leather top handle and some serious, heavy-duty TSA-approved locks. The case will be available for $1,720 on the brand’s online store. Thanks to Rimowa, your bubbly will make any journey unscathed—just in time for holiday travel.
Of course, Rimowa is not the first luxury luggage label to spearhead supreme traveling bottle service.
Fashion house Louis Vuitton is no stranger to the high end champagne carrier. From their Boite Champagne Monogram Case, to their NéoNoé designs, the Porte Bouteilles Wine Carrier and their Pour Veue Clicquot Petanque Bottle Case, Vuitton basically dominates the luxury designer segment of haute bottle carry ons.
The Noé bag, however, maintains the richest history of all the brand’s bottle-carrying options. Since opening in 1854, Louis Vuitton has always been known for their hard shell leather trunks and cases with the majority of their clientele being A-list jetsetters. Gaston-Louis Vuitton (the third generation to run the company) received a custom request from a Champagne manufacturer in 1932. He wanted to gift his clients with a quality leather bag, strong enough to contain numerous bottles and that would endure throughout the years. With its trademark drawstring feature, the bucket bag can easily withstand multiple bottles securely. With the monogrammed Noé continuing to be a Vuitton signature, Gaston-Louis was certainly successful in creating a bag to endure throughout the years.
Ranging in levels of security, from minimalist leather pouch sidekicks to full on monogrammed trunks encasing space carved out for your bottle, ice bucket and two flutes, LV’s champagne case options are virtually endless. In keeping with your fashionable traveling party, complete your trunk with two Balenciaga crystal glasses. Engraved with the house’s logo and trimmed with a silver platinum rim, your Louis Vuitton champagne case would be fully stacked as the final frontier in traveling with style.
For a fresh and natural look, British label Métier brings us the Triple Wine Carrier, fully equipped with an adjustable cross-body strap and room for a trio- the more the merrier! With a crisp linen exterior, accented with Italian cognac leather, the carrier has the capacity to host three standard wine bottles with a lush padded interior for keeping your party essentials safe and sound. Crafted in Italy, the handy tote is priced at $1,450 with individual drawstring closures to accommodate varying heights of your bottles.
Keep the party going with Judith Leiber’s Big Bubbles Champagne Crystal Clutch Bag. This cross-body sparkler may not be of the alcoholic variety, but it’ll put the same pep in your step as any other bottle of bubbly. With Leiber’s signature glamorous humor, the champagne clutch reads, “Seriously Underrated.” As New Year’s Eve draws near, this crystal encrusted little party gets our stamp of approval.
