'Pico' is the new bag size that everyone is talking about now

You've heard of mini and even nano to describe bag sizes. But the new buzzword is "pico". What exactly is that?

Dictionary.com defines pico as “one trillionth”. The term is obviously a hyperbolic and novel label to describe tinier-than-miniature bag trend that includes Fendi’s Pico Baguette (this may only just fit a pair of Airpods), Jacquemus’s readaptation of Le Chiquito, and Gucci’s new Porte Rouges pouch that’s meant to fit a single lipstick.

But these shrunken and doll-like designs highlight the fact that carrying a designer bag now is more akin to wearing a statement accessory/jewellery piece rather than carrying a practical necessity or arm candy. Here, we suss out some of the chicest “pico” bags that are only up to 10cm tall for your recommended shopping.
