After the proliferation of mini and micro bags we’ve seen over the past few years, the fashion pendulum has swung back towards the major and the maxi. As the pace of our lives pick up again — things to do! Places to go! — brands like Saint Laurent, Bottega Veneta and Gucci have proposed extra-roomy carriers that effortlessly combine form and function.
Slouchy, roomy and comfortable, this tote bag from Ferragamo is everything you’re looking for (and more).
Crafted from smooth black leather, this bag from Gabriela Hearst comes with a slouchy silhouette that’s defined by a knotted top handle. To keep all your essentials like your keys, cards, and more, you can easily store them in the detachable pouch that comes with the bag so you won’t have to rummage through it to find them.
For something a little more edgy, consider this large tote from Stella McCartney that’s large enough to hold your laptop and other work essentials.
This Off-White tote is perfect for those who are looking for a more muted designt that’s versatile enough to be carried everywhere you go on a day-to-day basis.
This list wouldn’t be complete without this iconic COS bag. The bag rose to popularity in 2023 with the puffer bag trend and it also got Jennie’s stamp of approval after the idol was spotted carrying the bag in one of her Instagram posts.
Not only does this bag give structure to your outfits, but it’s cleverly constructed so that it can be folded completely flat, making it perfect for your travels.
Inspired by the fluidity of a scarf, this number from Khaite is made from ‘Caramel’ suede and left unlined so it feels lightweight when carried.
If you’re on the hunt for a timeless piece that you can carry over and over again in the years to come, this piece from Tod’s is one worth splashing on.
