The Drew was introduced with Chloé's Autumn/Winter 2014 collection under the creative direction of Clare Waight Keller. It was an instant hit. The silhouette — a rounded flap saddle bag suspended from a delicate chain — reinterprets the 1970s codes dear to the Parisian fashion house while modernising them completely. The rectangular turn-lock closure, set at the centre of the flap like a piece of jewellery, quickly became one of the house's most recognisable signatures. The Drew was soon adopted by Beyoncé, Olivia Palermo, and Blake Lively, among others, establishing itself as one of the definitive it-bags of the decade.

This piece is crafted from pastel pink grained leather — a soft, powdery shade that shifts between pink and nude depending on the light. The grained leather gives the bag its structured hold and durability against daily wear. The contrast with the gold-tone hardware — clasp, tubular bar chain attachments, fine links — creates a harmonious balance of softness and shine. The leather is clean, corners are clean, and the edges are in good condition. Pleasant leather scent upon opening.

The fine-link chain measures approximately 104 cm and allows for shoulder or crossbody carry. The flap and turn-lock opening gives access to a main compartment that easily fits a phone, compact wallet, passport, AirPods, lipstick, and keys. An interior slip pocket keeps smaller items organised.

Good overall condition, grade B — clean leather, clean corners, edges in good condition, no major flaws. Please note slight patina on the front gold-tone clasp (see photos) and signs of previous wear inside the interior pocket (see photos). The rest of the interior is clean and in good condition. The bag comes with a RARR Vintage dust bag.
