Luxury French trunk-maker Moynat has introduced its latest M Canvas Fall Collection, expanding its signature monogram line with new seasonal hues that blend heritage craftsmanship with modern design.
Founded in 1849 by Pauline Moynat, the House built its reputation on technical innovation and artisanal excellence. Among its early breakthroughs was the “English Trunk”, introduced in 1873, which featured a waterproof coating made from gutta-percha, a then newly discovered vegetal gum from Indonesia. This pioneering material marked a turning point in luxury travel goods, setting Moynat apart as a symbol of refinement and functionality.
By the early 1900s, artistic director Henri Rapin further defined the brand’s identity with the introduction of the ‘M’ monogram, hand-painted across the trunks’ canvas. This instantly recognisable motif remains a key pillar of the Maison’s visual language, representing a century-old dialogue between tradition and innovation.
The M Canvas Collection continues this legacy, reimagining the monogram for contemporary lifestyles while maintaining the integrity of Moynat’s artisanal codes. For Autumn 2025, the collection debuts in rich fall tones of army green, burgundy, and navy, offering a modern reinterpretation of the House’s timeless aesthetic.
The line features some of Moynat’s most iconic bag silhouettes, including totes in small, medium, and large sizes; the 48h and mini 48h travel bags; the Hobo and Moon Bag; alongside the Daily Pouch and a range of small leather goods. Each piece showcases the meticulous craftsmanship and understated elegance that define the brand’s heritage.
Available across Moynat boutiques worldwide, the collection reinforces the House’s ongoing commitment to merging artistry and innovation. It serves as both a tribute to Moynat’s storied past and a reflection of its forward-looking vision—one that continues to evolve with contemporary fashion while staying true to the refined traditions established by its pioneering founder more than 175 years ago.
