Game Changers: 5 Bags For All Seasons
We take a look at a some of the more memorable bags from this season that you will simply wish to own.
This seasonās most memorable bags are all about reform (nothing destructive, though). Whether it is newly introduced styles or impeccable updates of icons, our picks arenāt only attractive, theyāll also shift your perspective.
Holographic City Trunk PM by Louis Vuitton
We never thought Nicolas GhesquiĆØre could be soā¦ Zen. This little piece of hardware proves that. Yes, thereās a dent in it, and thatās the beautiful reason why weāre rethinking the entire sphere of GhesquiĆØreās spirituality. Despite its overtly contemporary form, the City trunk emanates wabi-sabi (the Japanese art of finding beauty in imperfection), which is enlightening, considering how every other brand strives, instead, for perfection.
Tweed Amazona by Loewe
As far as tweed bags go, most of them have been chichi. Thank god for Jonathan Anderson, the holy mastermind of the Amazona reinvention. Now heās bringing a chic, fringy update that masks the bagās actual silhouette. With plenty of texture, itās the one-of-a-kind bag youāll sport to death. Every inch of it will end up frayed and we reckon thatās the look Anderson wants you to achieve.
MIUlady by Miu Miu
Miuccia Prada knows how to spoil her girls: this is the bag for 2k16 aristocracy. Coming from a designer who consistently plays with ostentation in an ironic fashion, you have the license to have every kind of fun with it. Even if youāre not born a Jenner or a Hadid (who are both atypical of a Miu Miu runway), make sure your purchases convince everyone of your royal lineage.
Runway by Dior
For Fall/Winter 2016, the Runway proved that studio heads Lucie Meier and Serge Ruffieux are going strong, even without a creative director. Pictured here is a version embroidered entirely with sequinned flowers and fringes ā itās intense. The bag comes in such delicate versions, youāre likely to be engulfed with the fear of getting tangled in everything ā but fret not, the workmanship is fantastic.
La PionniĆØre by Prada
We understand the thrill and prestige of being the first (hence the name) in any field ā who wouldnāt want to be associated with innovators and groundbreakers? In todayās world of chaos, we rely on whatās inventive to move us forward. The hunting-inspired cross-body was the first bag Prada offered at the dawn of the āsee now, buy nowā game, which begs the question: if our lady Miuccia is doing it, will the rest of the industry follow suit?
