The fall/winter 2024 handbag trends were dominated by no one silhouette; rather, designers incorporated every conceivable design element.
Although a complete wardrobe makeover isn't always necessary, the arrival of autumn may signal the need for a new handbag. Although you can buy this must-have item for your upcoming arm party in a variety of sizes and shapes, this is not a choice that should be made hastily. A purse may weigh a lot. An outfit can be made or broken by it. It can take centre stage in fashion, but not always in a good way. In order to stay up to date with the biggest trends of 2024, we've compiled a list of the best purses to carry (on) in 2019.
Perhaps Carrie Bradshaw, as seen recently on And Just Like That..., is sporting a pigeon bag for autumn, but even the most well-known fashionista in New York isn't going to start a trend with avian accessories. (If you're curious, the once-sold-out and still highly sought-after $890 JW Anderson clutch is now back in stock.)
Fall's top bag trends, on the other hand, are less wacky but just as likely to be seen on New York City streets as a real pigeon—and they're also receiving a lot more admiration than a purse shaped like one. The bags that we'll be seeing everywhere in the upcoming month are still strange in their own unique ways, even though they're not as strange.
One popular style from Gucci's Tom Ford collection is the horsebit-chain shoulder bag, which is meant to be carried close to the body like a seductive secret. The pillowy interior of Louis Vuitton's Go-14 top-handle bag has enough room to fit everything you could possibly need, making it the perfect accessory for those "What's in your bag?" videos. Of course, there are also the figuratively enormous bags, such as those seen on the Ferragamo runway. But if you really want to go over the edge, we suggest picking up the fruit-flavored banana-handle leather hobo bag from Puppets and Puppets, which is a sequel to their well-known cookie bag.
In terms of size, we are once again being pushed to the limit with XXL totes—which, while not totally novel, present an exciting concept for fitting one's whole life into a single carryall. The loose shapes of spring/summer 2024 have also given way to more boxy, structured designs for fall; these little moving sculptures are ideal for lending weight to baggy coats and oversized sweaters.
Texture is a major fall fashion trend that accessories designers should take note of. Given that winter is the ideal season to wear plush materials like suede and shearling to replenish a wardrobe lacking in vitamin D, tactile plays aren't totally shocking. A recurring motif in both the ready-to-wear and handbag collections is colour, specifically metallic and red accents. Even though these are holiday classics, they read more sophisticated than ever because of the designs from Chanel, Jacquemus, and Coperni.
Naturally, creative directors frequently consult historical archives for inspiration. This season, several iconic fashion houses—including Gucci, Fendi, and Dior—returned to some of their most recognisable logos and sought-after silhouettes. The redesigned Gucci Horsebit shoulder bag, which pays homage to the Tom Ford era, is a Vogue favourite and comes in small and large sizes in a variety of colours. There are many stealth wealth options worth investing in for those who are just keen to add a practical style to their capsule wardrobe; Khaite and The Row are great places to start if you want a bag that will carry you from autumn through spring.

Womens Burgundy Leather Crossbody Bag

Two straps: one small leather strap for the handheld look, and one chain strap with a cosy leather grip. Simple interior with lining made of soft cotton. The ideal fusion of fashion and utility combined into one.
Contemporary Classics
Autumn fashion this year has shifted from the voluminous, flowing forms of previous seasons to more boxy silhouettes. Leading this shift are Prada, Tory Burch, and Ferragamo, who offer structured top handles that are suitable for day-to-night wear. The Row's Dalia bag, which comes in a variety of finishes like suede and patent leather, is a seasonal must-have for Vogue editors. However, if you're in the middle of things between minimalism and maximalism, don't miss Ferragamo's interpretation with its cherry red lucite handle.
Pop of Red
Fashion's obsession with red—cherry, candy apple, and crimson—continues with a plethora of striking purses, as seen at Chanel, Coperni, and Alexander McQueen. Statement pieces like these, which come in a variety of sizes and shapes, will eliminate any uncertainty about how to wear the colour this season.
Trend for Fall 2024: Oversized, larger-than-life bags
If you think an elongated bag won't fit, take a look at the enormous bags that have been a runway mainstay for the past few seasons. Models at Coach, Ferragamo, and Loewe in February carried bags so big they occasionally touched the runway.
The simplest way to look like an Olsen twin is to carry around an oversized bag. Mary-Kate and Ashley probably adore this look because it instantly lends an air of mystery. You'll get looks like they're wondering why on earth she needs such a big bag. Even if all you're carrying around is a tiny wallet and a lip tint (though the most Olsen thing to do would be to stuff the bag to the brim and then spill some wine on it), who doesn't like the idea of an appearance that really piques others' interest?
