Women's Designer Bags of The 2024 Season
With the new season in full bloom, brands have already launched their proposals for women's designer handbags for 2024. Magazines, runway shows, and streets have already chosen which pieces are to be the most sought after. From the minimalist affair of The Row Margaux bag to the colourful Jacquemus bags and the craftsmanship behind Bottega Veneta's Andiamo bags, the spotlight on so-called seasonal pieces becomes increasingly diversified each year.
Trends come and go quickly, but some models withstand the waves of fashion and the internet. So, which handbags now share the podium of the 2024 handbag trends?
Jacquemus Bags
In spring, adoration for Jacquemus handbags reaches total bloom. The colourful and elegant design of these bags makes them perfect companions for the summer season.
In their new collection Les Sculptures, alongside their famous Le Bambino Jacquemus bags and their new Le Bambimou, two new jewels in the form of clutches appear: Le Petit Calino and Le Petite Pochette. Le Petit Calino, a handbag with an arched shape and a completely round metallic handle, is a verse in the ode to contemporary sculpture that was Jacquemus's latest runway show. Its minimalist shape, devoid of the brand's known logo, establishes an entirely new aesthetic line for the house.
Le Petite Pochette, which is the heir of the Le Chouchou runway show held in June at Versailles, is a handbag with a magnetic and screw closure, playing with the asymmetry of its handle and creating a completely new structure for the brand.
The Chloé Woody Tote Bag
Chemena Kamali's takeover at the new Chloé has sparked celebrations throughout the industry. Her optimistic view of the brand's origin and her extensive experience with the maison have made her new runway show the most sought after of Paris Fashion Week.
With her particular perspective on accessories as an essential part of any ensemble, it is expected that the brand will revive the iconic Chloé Woody line. Comprising the famous Woody Tote Bag and Woody sandals, the French brand's range represents the freshness of the seasonal change with sights set to summer. Adorned with house logos on canvas pieces, this is one of the brand's best-selling ranges.
The Row Margaux Bag
Zoe Kravitz, Jennifer Lawrence, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Peggy Gou, Rosé, Elle Fanning, Kendall Jenner... The Row Margaux Bag re-emerged in 2023 and ended the year as the most sought-after product. Dubbed by many as the 'new Birkin,' this spacious bag (available in sizes Margaux 10, Margaux 12, MArgaux 15 and Margaux 17) is inspired by the Olsen sisters' own style.
Since the 2000s, the creative duo has been photographed countless times with their large, well-used bags. In an industry where novelty prevails, Mary-Kate and Ashley popularised the idea of garments having a life of their own and celebrating the beauty of ageing. Thus, they created the Margaux The Row, a bag in the softest leather designed to age with harmony and sophistication. Its slouchy or relaxed silhouette reduces the stiffness of the model for aging to the taste of the Olsen twins.
The Bottega Veneta Andiamo Bag
Another new must-have among the world's celebrities. The Bottega Veneta Andiamo bag appears in Matthieu Blazy's second collection for Bottega Veneta. Named after the word 'let's go' in Italian, the bag is intended to accompany us on all kinds of journeys.
Travel, work, meetings; the Andiamo bag is a spacious model with three different sizes created for various needs. Each model undergoes weeks of preparation, hand-braided with the characteristic intrecciato of the house thanks to the artisans working at Bottega. Currently, the brand's two own schools are training the future generation of artisans for the house's bags and accessories.
In addition to these multi-season stars, Miu Miu bags like the Wander Bag or the Arcadie Bag continue to rise in popularity due to the great popularity of Miu Miu. Others, like the iconic Saint Laurent Toy bags, have returned with a double strap, perfect for wearing them either crossbody, over the shoulder, or even as handbags. The new Loewe Puzzle Fold comes in both large and mini sizes, being the new sensation of the house and a showcase of its craftsmanship.
