5 Fall Designer Bag Trends Shaping The Season And Styles To Shop Now

 

This year’s fall designer bag trends  have been out since the last catwalks and we sure are in for some fun. From velvety textures to bold, flashy embellishments, it’s time we all get a bag upgrade. Even if you’re not into the most daring styles, there’s bound to be one for you. Whether you’re a boho lover of Chloé or a classy fan of Tom Ford, every brand has a trendy style to adore.

 

1. Flashy Embellishments

 

If you ask me, embellishments win the fall designer bag trend list. Fun, unique, and certainly designed for parties, embellishments like chainmail and sequins will be everywhere. However, just because you found a bag like Valentino’s Loco, doesn’t mean you should stop there. Part of this trend is to also incorporate the flashy look into your outfit too. Don’t be afraid to pair it with a vivid colored dress and shiny gold sandals like the Alexandre Birman Titas. Fall bags for 2024 were made to be bold and daring.

A Throwback To The Past

 

2. Vintage Velour

 

If there’s one fall designer bag trend to shop on this list, make it a suede bag. This one in particular from Tom Ford is by far one of my favorites. Not only is it made in one of the season’s hottest colors, but it’s also perfect for a night out. If you get your hands on this stunning find, make sure to pair it with a dramatic black heel like these Balenciaga leather pumps. This bag was made for an experimental look.

 

3. Animal Print & Skin

 

Feel like you’re seeing this trend every season? You might be. There’s a reason why animal prints and skins make it on almost every fall designer bag trends list. In fact, although it’s always popular, I’ll always love a good leopard print piece. Not only is this shoulder bag from Rabanne flashy also, but its cheetah mesh material adds a modern flair. But if you’re looking for a more day-to-day piece, look to the Chloé’s Marcie. Incorporating animal prints and skins doesn’t have to be complex. Simply choose a black dress like the Tularosa Wilson mini for a look that’s on-trend, but comfortable.

Can't Forget The Classics

 

4. Curvy Silhouettes 

 

Boxy, bold bags have been at the top of fall trends for years. The time has finally come to embrace a softer side of the accessories with curvy silhouettes. If I had to pick just one to share, it’s the Alaïa Dome leather tote without a doubt. Not only are pieces like this versatile for everyday wear, but leather is simply a classic you can’t pass on. Style it with other trendy accessories like Gucci’s Lady Horsebit pumps for a fun, modern look you’ll always come back to. I mean, how could you not? Sometimes a good black bag and shoes are all you need to make fall designer bag trends look their best.

 

5. Sleek Leather 

 

As one of the last fall designer bag trends, sleek leather isn’t going anywhere. But not just any leather—leather that’s shiny from miles away. While not known for leather bags, Etro sure does have a stunning selection for the season. In fact, this Vela shoulder bag in particular is a must-have. Before you ask yourself, why another leather black bag, envision this Hutch maxi with the Tom Ford Paradis sandals. Irresistible, right? This fall isn’t so much about changing what’s always been fashionable. These fall designer bag trends are really about bringing better styles to the textiles and patterns we’ve always loved.
