70 Years of Coach

Coach celebrates its 70th anniversary this year. The company commissioned seven artists including Chen Man, Mika Ninagawa, and Sheila Metzner to photograph a handbag from its anniversary collection.
 
One of the early designers for Coach's handbags was Bonnie Cashin, who established a women's accessories line there in 1962. She pioneered the use of industrial hardware on clothing and accessories, most famously with the brass toggle that she incorporated into her handbag designs for Coach.
