10 of the best SS19 new bags to know

Chanel Side Packs

For SS19, Chanel took its audience to the beach, offering a seaside-inspired collection. In true Chanel style, in some instances the theme was taken literally, with bags in forms of beach balls and wicker picnic baskets. One of the most striking new designs from the Chanel SS19 collection was the Side Pack, two bags joined by their chains and sitting over each hip ‒ ideal for when one bag just won’t cut it.

Chloé C bag

For AW18 Chloé released the Tess and Roy bags, but for SS19 it is all about the Chloé C bags. The new range features styles from timeless flap-fronted messengers to shoulder bags and clutches, each distinguished by a large initial C on the front. Available in a range of hues from black and sepia brown to woody green, brilliant white and plaid red, these classy bags are sure to stand the test of time.

Louis Vuitton Toupie bag

For SS19, Louis Vuitton revisited many of its classic bag styles, updating them in new colourways, patterns and textures. From the Petite Malle to the City Steamer and the New Wave bags there was much to covet. The saucer-like Toupie in particular garnered much attention and is sure to be seen on the arms of many of the street-style set very soon.

Prada Sidonie bag

A 90s-style shoulder bag, Prada’s new Sidonie bag is sure to make waves on the street-style scene for SS19. The distinctive curved aesthetic and flap closure in two-tone leather are easily recognisable as the brand’s style and make this a cult bag for the new season.

Loewe raffia bag

Raffia was a key texture for the Loewe SS19 collections, and many of the brand’s bestselling bag designs were updated in the wicker style for the new season. The Loewe Gate bag remains one of the cult ‘It’ bags of the moment and this season the saddle-shape cross-body bag has been remodelled in raffia.

Fendi Upside Down bag

Fendi’s double F logo has been the talk of the last few seasons and for SS19 the famous logo has been embossed on to the new Fendi Upside Down bag. The new style can be worn as either a belt bag or a cross-body bag with the chain strap attached.

Celine C bag

Celine’s spring/summer 2019 collection is the brand’s debut range by creative director Hedi Slimane. His first collection caused ripples in the industry with his fierce take on the label’s aesthetic, and his accessories are an example of this. The new Celine C bag has already been spotted on the arms of many celebrities and is sure to be a big player in this season.

Mulberry Hampstead bag

The Mulberry Hampstead bag offers a new silhouette for SS19. Inspired by the famous outdoor swimming pool on Hampstead Heath in London, the new bag style has an elegant drawstring closure and features a pared-back version of the Mulberry Twist Ring Lock.
