See inside Jeanne Beker’s bag »
For those of us who came of fashionable age by the television set in Canada, Jeanne Beker is it. Trailblazing the industry since the launch of FashionTelevision in 1985, she is without a doubt the country’s most recognizably fabulous face. Known for her bestie status interviews with the likes of Karl Lagerfeld, Beker has often been referred to as pioneer, renegade, genius and trendsetter----they’d all be accurate. Her omnipresent fashion presence has inspired many careers and since FT’s tearful end last year, she hasn’t stopped. Beker still covers major fashion events for E! News and designs not one but two collection, Edit by Jeanne Beker work wear and Fysh by Jeanne Beker optical.
Solidifying her impact, Beker currently covers the latest issue of Worn Journal, which features a gushy profile inside. To boot, she’ll down with Worn editor Serah-Marie McMahon at Type Books (883 Queen Street West) in Toronto next Thursday August 29 at 7pm.
So, what does a fashion icon carry with her all day long? Peep inside Jeanne Beker’s chic Louis Vuitton Alma bag to find out!

This is the Alma bag and it’s so classic. It’s such a great size because Louis Vuitton bags comes in 3 different sizes and that one is sort of just in the middle. I find this bag is a great day bag for everyday. I love the leather. It’s so classic. It’s so understated. It’s a great design. It’s never going to go out of fashion. You know, it’s an investment bag but it’s one that I’ll have forever. And people covet it and that’s always nice. a great no nonsense wallet. And sometimes you can just carry it out on it’s own. It’s almost like a little mini chic clutch. So anyway…that’s that.
