Maison Rabanne has unveiled the world’s most expensive bag during its Spring 2025 show as part of Paris Fashion Week. Priced at $278,353, the new 1969 Nano Bag was created in collaboration with artisan jeweler Arthus Bertrand.

The chainmail purse took 100 hours to craft and was made from interlinked gold discs, and crafted from 18-karat gold, making it a unique creation and a tribute to the 1968 dress worn by Françoise Hardy, which was made from 1,000 gold plaques and inlaid with 300 carats of diamonds, and known as the most expensive dress at the time.
