Previous year 2020, around Fall and Winter, Chanel has already released the Chanel Mini WOC’s. These WOC’s are a bit smaller than the regular WOC’s. And they were only available with Pearl or Bow Strap. (You can find more information about them in the link below).
But now for the Spring Summer 2021 Collection, the Chanel Mini WOC’s are available in Classic edition.
These Mini WOC’s looks exactly like the regular Classic Quilted WOC’s, but in different sizes. Do you think they’re useful?
