Moynat was established in 1849 as a House specialized in trunk making. Its founder, Pauline Moynat, invented the "English Trunk" as early as 1873. First trunk to be coated in gutta-percha, a then newly-discovered vegetal gum from Indonesia. This revolutionary waterproof canvas becomes a major pillar of the House’s reputation of innovation and technical excellence. In the early 1900s the 'M' monogram, newly introduced by Henri Rapin, was hand-painted on the trunks canvas immediately recognizable as the signature of the House. The M collection is the latest expression of our archive monogram, a fusion between the House’s traditional heritage and ongoing commitment to contemporary innovation. Abby Champion and He Cong shot by Oliver Hadlee Pearch, this series highlights the essence of Moynat’s canvas with a focus on movement, liveliness and color. #Moynat
