Classic Mini 20: the smallest

At 20 cm wide, the Mini 20 keeps the full shape of the line at the smallest scale. It holds a phone, a cardholder, keys, a lipstick and a compact pouch. It is not sized for a full wallet or a tablet. With the strap attached it works as a crossbody bag. Two of its three colors are contrast colorways, which pair two tones in one bag.
