Vogue’s Definitive Autumn Bag Hit List

By Alice Cary

There was a distinct lack of handbag action during the pandemic. To make up for lost time, we’ve put together a definitive bag hit-list that comprises the must-have styles worth coveting this season. 

Of course, there are the classics: the LBD in bag form – the LBB (little black bag) – the everything tote, to house all your personals, and the cachet crossbody.

Make way for contemporary shapes, too. Sculptural bags have been a fashion month hero among the street-style set – their favourites are The Row’s curved half-moon bag and Kiko Kostadinov’s sturdy Trivia. Pillowy bags are another key post-lockdown staple: it’s no secret that Bottega Veneta’s puffy Pouch range has provided solace for style mavens. 

Below, Vogue ’s guide to the bags that have got your back, always. (It’s thorough, so don’t forget to bookmark what takes your fancy.)

The trusty tote

Every wardrobe must contain a capacious do-it-all bag that can carry just about anything and everything you might need. They’re a travel essential, ready to equip you for any in-flight situation. Let the rummaging commence. 

Khaite circle tote

Net-a-Porter

Arket leather-trimmed linen tote

Cos oversized tote

Chloé leather-trimmed cotton-canvas tote

Mulberry Bayswater tote

Tod’s leather tote bag

The sculptural winner

Those keen to stand out from the crowd, sculptural accessories are for you. Think of them as wearable pieces of art – a daily conversation-starter. Bring on the compliments. 

The Row half-moon leather shoulder bag

Givenchy cut-out leather shoulder bag

Kiko Kostadinov Trivia bag

Consider purchasing a chic shoulder bag. Not only will it give you an instant mood-boost, it’s a feel-good way to carry around your essentials.

A.P.C. smooth-leather cross-body bag

MatchesFashion

Marni crossbody two-tone leather shoulder bag

Savette leather shoulder bag

Armani logo-stamp shoulder bag

The chain-adorned purse

Chains aren’t restricted to your jewellery box anymore. Leather goods, too, can be decorated with a slinky chain. Paco Rabanne was the original master of metalwork creations in the ’60s, while Daniel Lee and JW Anderson have been fervid champions of the modern-day chain-adorned handbag movement. It’s time to get on board.

Bottega Veneta Mount bag

Chanel classic handbag

JW Anderson chain-adorned bag

Amina Muaddi Pernille mini bag

Neous chain strap bag

Paco Rabanne iconic 1969 chain bag

The pillowy companion

Fashion’s alternative to a therapy dog or comfort blanket? A squidgy purse. The puffier, the better. Padded bags are great for many reasons: keeping your stuff safe (and cosy), plus the cloud-like styles double-up as a pillow. Do you really need convincing?

Coach Tabby bag

Off-White top-handle pouch

Kassl Editions puffy pouch

Loewe Flamenco leather clutch

Jil Sander drawstring pouch

Jimmy Choo Bon Bon bag

The sugar-sweet accessory

Sometimes you only need a small bag. Thankfully, there are plenty of wonderful pocket-size purses on the market, made for the occasions when all you need is your phone, keys, wallet and lipstick. Vanity cases have been a popular choice among the It-girls of late – Tanner Krolle have got some fabulous options.

Miu Miu gingham shoulder bag

Medea leather mini tote

Valentino Garavani Rockstud Spike quilted leather shoulder bag

Louis Vuitton pre-owned monogrammed vanity case

Ermanno Scervino flip-lock bag

The LBB (little black bag)

It’s a well-known fact that LBDs are a wardrobe staple, so it makes sense that LBBs are just as important. Like a little black dress, a little black bag should be reliable, versatile and timeless. Stick to classic shapes for peak elegance.

Elevate your getaway with these stylish weekend bags

Photo: @paravel

With travel easing up it’s time to elevate your getaway game with a stylish travel bag, so we asked our handbag expert Marianne Theodorsen to pick out her favourites

The holiday season is right around the corner, and for many of us, that means it’s time to pack our bags for a getaway. Maybe you’re planning for a relaxing mountain escape, or perhaps you’re getting ready for a not-so-relaxing (but oh so cosy) get-together with the entire family. Whatever is in your calendar, there's no need to cram all your things into that dusty old duffle bag you pull out from the basement once a year.

This season – considering the past couple of years – travelling feels a little more special. Considering this, why not elevate your travel aesthetic with some luxurious luggage? The perfect weekender bag will easily fit a couple of outfits and some toiletries, should be easy to carry around, and durable enough to survive stuffed overhead compartments and luggage rooms. Considering our long list of requirements, thankfully, there are options that tick all of our boxes while still being easy on the eyes.

There’s no reason that your luggage shouldn’t spark as much joy as the holiday season, so here are eight great weekend bags to lift your spirits and your getaway game:

The Best Travel Organizers for Every Type of Trip

Packing for a trip requires organization. And there's no better way to keep toiletries, makeup, digital gear, jewelry, and other small travel essentials safe during transit than with the right bag. Whether you're headed on a two-week vacation or a short weekend getaway, durable travel bags, pouches, and cases will always come in handy. We've rounded up a comprehensive list of the best travel organizers for every type of traveler, whether you need a sturdy cosmetic case for makeup products or a smart tech kit for cords and chargers. Below, our tried-and-true travel organizers, from waterproof pouches to essential packing cubes.

Dopp kits for women

Dopp kits for men, makeup bags, packing cubes, jewelry cases, hanging toiletry bags, water-resistant pouches.

Every traveler needs a go-to Dopp kit that will keep small toiletries like contact solution, moisturizer, and sunscreen organized in one place. These roomy and reliable bags also ensure your clothes and other personal items will be protected against any accidental leaks while traveling. The best Dopp kits for women offer enough space for your essentials while still being compact enough to fit in an already-stuffed carry-on or weekender .

Read more : The Best Dopp Kits for Women

There are plenty of great Dopp kits for men on the market—Dagne Dover, Herschel, Rains, and Bagsmart make some of our favorite travel-friendly (and budget-friendly) bags. These options make skincare and grooming products easy to find and easy to pack in your suitcase. No matter where you're headed on your next getaway, a trusty Dopp kit is essential. (Any of these sleek bags would also make a great gift for the travel-loving man in your life, too.)

We've all been there: You're sitting in a small, cramped seat in economy hopelessly searching for your iPhone charger in your under-seat bag. The solution to never-ending bag searching and tangled cords: A smart tech organizer that keeps all of your digital gear neat and tidy. These organizers are a true game changer when it comes packing cords, portable chargers, AirPods, and any other tech essentials you're toting around.

I've ruined a few tote bags by throwing a lipstick or loose powder inside and hoping for the best. You can't always be gentle with your personal item or carry-on while in transit, so a durable cosmetic bag helps protect your makeup products and everything around it. If you want to make getting ready in a hotel bathroom even speedier, opt for a clear cosmetic case or the Lay-n-Go drawstring bag that makes finding all of your products easier than ever.

If you're not already using packing cubes, let this be your sign to start. Our editors swear by packing cubes to keep clothes organized and compressed—meaning you can fit a whole lot more in your suitcase with these. Packing cubes also help you separate clean clothes from dirty ones and help protect special items like dresses and suits from any spilled liquids in your carry-on. Paravel and Calpak make some of our favorite packing cubes, but we also love the more budget-friendly options you can find on Amazon from Bagail and Alameda.

The last thing you need upon arriving to your destination is to find all of your necklaces and bracelets tangled. Or worse, discover that you lost a special (or expensive) piece of jewelry while in transit. A sturdy jewelry case ensures your favorite pieces will be safe and protected from being squashed or broken. And if you're in need of a thoughtful gift , a well-made and sleek jewelry case will be much appreciated.

Toiletries can quickly create a cluttered bathroom counter. The next time you stay at a hotel or Airbnb, consider placing a hanging toiletry bag on the back of the bathroom door. It will help you see all of your products at a glance and limits the need to unpack and repack at the end of your trip. Use these to store anything from skincare and beauty products to jewelry and hair tools .

Sometimes, you need a water-resistant pouch or an extra bag, just in case . Options like the Aloha Collection pouches and Baggu set can hold wet bathing suits, dirty clothes, or sand-filled beach items, making it safe to toss them back in your tote or backpack . These types of bags can also keep your phone and other electronics safe if you're lounging by the pool.

But choosing the best travel garment bag for your needs can be a challenge. There are a lot of options on the market, so we asked an expert about how to find the right one. According to Tumi creative director Victor Sanz, “Your garment bag should be sturdy, functional, and sleek. If you’re frequently traveling by plane, a garment bag that folds to fit carry-on requirements is essential.” He adds, “You want to find the size that will fit all your clothes without having to overfold them and will allow you to reach your destination in style.”

It’s also important to consider bonus features, like pockets and organizational compartments, and, as Sanz notes, “A crucial function is to ensure that you’re able to hang your garment bag when you arrive at your destination, so that you can prepare your outfits as easily as possible and to ensure that all your clothes are crisp.” Keeping all this in mind, we found the 12 best travel garment bags out there today. Once you start using one of these, you’re never going to go back.

MZ Wallace’s signature quilting isn’t limited to the brand’s totes, appearing here in garment bag form. The thin design is extremely lightweight, ideal for quick trips when you need to bring one to three outfits. There is even an exterior pocket for bonus storage.

Dimensions: 22" × 3" × 39"

Materials: Oxford, leather

What reviewers are saying: “I have been interested in a MZ Wallace garment bag for a while. It is perfect! Just right proportions and size. Thoughtful design and construction details.”

Tumi always delivers premium luggage that will last you over a decade, and this garment bag is no exception. Sanz says: “It’s foldable, with a sturdy handle for easy carrying, making it convenient and compact for every type of travel. I also love that it has several zipper pockets, so I can pack my toiletries and other travel essentials all in one bag. When I arrive at my destination, I hang it in the closet and I know that I will be ready to go.”

Dimensions: 15" x 22" x 6"

Materials: Ballistic nylon

What reviewers are saying: “This bag stores so much for a carry on. I was able to comfortably fit 2 suits and more for a destination wedding!”

This duffel has been receiving high praise ever since its release. A few of the reasons it’s so popular: The duffel is carry-on friendly, water-resistant, and has interior and exterior pockets. And those are only a few of its distinguishing features. Choose an original or compact size for the style that suits your needs.

Dimensions: 22" x 12" x 12"

Materials: Polyester

What reviewers are saying: “The Garment Duffel is a great purchase, especially for anyone in an industry that takes short frequent trips. I was actually able fit quite a bit more clothes than I had anticipated. Took the bag to work and my company bought 20 of them to give to customers. Great purchase.”

Longchamp’s iconic nylon and leather trim takes on a garment bag silhouette. The two-tone design exudes sophistication, with practical touches like a top carry handle, built-in hanger, and front zip pocket.

Dimensions: 23.25" x 41.25"

Materials: Nylon, leather

What reviewers are saying: “I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend who travels a lot and needed a nice garment bag particularly for his suits. This bag is perfect! It fits his suit as well as a few extra shirts. The fabric is an amazing, durable quality, and the leather details make this product look incredible.”

This garment bag is actually designed to fit inside of your carry-on, rather than serving as a stand-alone piece. The water-resistant exterior protects against spills, and exterior zip pockets hold small accessories. It gets the job done, while taking up the least possible amount of space.

Dimensions: 40" x 19"

What reviewers are saying: “I use this bag when I need to workout at work. I go from a suit to athleticwear in minutes.”

Looking for an affordable option that is available ASAP? Amazon’s garment bag holds up to three suits or dresses and boasts multiple zipper compartments.

Dimensions: 40" x 4" x 20.5"

What reviewers are saying: “I bought this bag in 2019 and it has held up incredibly well since then, performs all functions advertised at a great price value. I have taken it on many flights, buses and train rides and have never had an issue with fitting it in the overhead bin on both longer-haul flights and short budget-airline carriers.”

Hartmann’s garment bag adds contemporary touches to an otherwise traditional design. The result? A chic, useful travel accessory that will stand the test of time. The padded shoulder strap and multiple interior pockets enhance the convenience of this style.

Materials: Nylon

What reviewers are saying: “Hartmann was an anniversary gift from my work place, and I am still proud to own it 35 years later.”

Mark & Graham Commuter 2-in-1 Garment Bag

Another convertible duffel, but this time with a personalized touch. That’s right—Mark & Graham lets you monogram your duffel. With a plethora of zippered and snap interior and exterior pockets, this bag gets creative with its storage solutions.

Dimensions: 22" x 10" x 10"

This spinner-style garment bag makes navigating a chaotic airport easy. The ergonomic design has expandable capabilities, as well as various compartments, a hanger bracket, and a pocket for liquids.

Dimensions: 20.5" x 24" x 9.5"

What reviewers are saying: “It’s easy to maneuver and overall great quality and very neat design (many compartments and zippered areas).”

For golfers and non-golfers alike, Stitch makes a duffel that is water- and stain-resistant, and includes a hanger hook, shoulder strap, elastic shoe pockets, and webbed handles. You can even get it customized with your initials.

Dimensions: 22.5" x 11.5" x 12"

What reviewers are saying: “Love it! Fits into the airplane overhead bin, no trouble bringing it along as a carry-on bag. Very sturdy, zippers are tough enough. Shoulder strap is removable. My suit arrived in top shape using this garment bag. Highly recommended.”

Ralph Lauren Leather-Trim Hybrid Garment Duffel

Ralph Lauren’s duffel design is the epitome of understated elegance. An accompanying shoulder strap makes it easy to carry around.

Dimensions: 15" x 21.5" x 9"

Materials: Polyester, leather

Gucci Savoy Garment Bag

Embrace the bold luxury aesthetic with a Gucci bag covered in the house’s monogram. Containing a big compartment with a hanger and two zip pockets, this garment bag will hold all your essentials.

Is This Where Vetements Gets All Its Good Ideas? Visiting Moscow’s Best Thrift Shop

By Liana Satenstein

There’s a joke going around Russia right now, the likes of which you’ve probably heard: Hit up any secondhand store, pluck something from the racks, and there you have it—“ Vetements !” Maybe it’s not laugh-out-loud funny, but at least on a surface level, it’s not that far from the truth. And to that end, local rumor has it that about 25 minutes outside of Moscow is the very thrift shop where the Vetements crew themselves shop. We’re talking rising fashion stars Lotta Volkova and Gosha Rubchinskiy , in the flesh. And like any girl who is taking a deep-dive into the hype surrounding the label, if Vetements is doing it, I’m at least going to try it.

Megastyle, the retail treasure trove, is not without its ironies. I head there in the morning with a crew that includes Seva, a model, who sports track pants and a white Adidas windbreaker, and Margarita Zubatova, a creative director who has worked with up-and-coming labels like ZDDZ and Darkdron and who arrives in skintight velour pants with an earthy, acid-trip kaleidoscopic pattern. Even fresh off the tail end of Paris Fashion Week , the duo still swear by Megastyle. “This is the only place I shop,” says Seva. Zubatova remembers dropping a “ridiculous” amount of money at Megastyle on a mountain of clothes. To hear the two of them tell it, it’s an addictive experience.

We arrive to the outskirts of Moscow at the innocuous-looking Megastyle, a barren strip mall that smells faintly of bleach. Unlike the popular bazaars in Tbilisi, Georgia , or Lesnoy in Kiev, Ukraine , there are no vendors, no wayward outdoor terrain, no sightseeing or sense of adventure while you shop. There is instead fluorescent overhead lighting, rows and rows of clothing racks, and lots of linoleum. Like any secondhand store, there’s plenty of junk: bland white denim jackets shipped from Greece; tired, pilling turtlenecks; and heaps of shapeless mom jeans. Seva dives into a bin to begin comparing bucket hats and orthopedic-looking sneakers, neither of which holds much interest for me. The chances of my finding something seem dismal. How could I find anything in a place called “Megastyle”? Zubatova, who has filled her cart with leather pants, distressed jackets, red short shorts, and hoodies, reminds me that this isn’t the type of place where things simply pop out to you: You have to work for it, you have to search. It becomes almost like a meditative quest: to summon the mood required for shopping, for rummaging, for becoming one with the Moscow mecca of the pre-worn. I’m directed to a rack of leather coats, and voilà ! I pull out a thin red leather racing jacket that fits me like a glove. A few rows over, there’s a boxy green carpenter jacket and a windbreaker from a Russian karate school with “St. Petersburg” in Cyrillic emblazoned on the back, and a shiny faux leather jacket that I immediately fall in love with.

But it’s Zubatova who makes the biggest killing, snagging a jacket that looks like a gradiated Soviet rug, a pair of white sneakers, and a retro carrot-colored zip-up polo that looks like something Stella McCartney might have churned out. As for Seva, he looks straight out of a Vetements catalog—or a Soviet apartment in which he’s illegally squatting—in a huge denim jacket with sleeves that zip off halfway. As we make our way to the checkout, I spot my soon-to-be favorite piece of all and fully find myself in the spirit: a stretchy, semi-sheer shirt with scalloped sleeves and a tiger printed on the front. It’s the pinnacle of good-taste-bad-taste, heinous-meets-chic. I snatch it with glee, and everyone applauds my find. We check out to an indication that the younger fashion-conscious crowd has preceded us: They accept credit cards here, in the outskirts of Moscow! We leave, proud and beaming, our arms filled with secondhand scores that all add up to less than $20 per person. Megastyle, indeed.

Special thank you to Liza Kologreeva

Future fashion cities: Paris to overtake New York?

By Annachiara Biondi

Paris is expected to overtake New York to become the number one city for relevance and potential in the global fashion industry by 2025, according to IFDAQ Global Cities Consumer IPX (Index). The likelihood is that London will rise to third place, surpassing Milan, the research says.

IFDAQ Global Cities Consumer IPX (Index), exclusive to Vogue Business , evaluates global cities according to four dynamic-weighted key factors, including general economy, fashion economic performance, market capitalisation and industry influence. These factors take into account infrastructure, GDP, brand presence, wealth, consumption power and creative power.

Paris is likely to reap the benefits of Brexit, including faster European Union integration and less competition from London, according to Frédéric Godart, co-CEO of IFDAQ and associate professor of organisational behaviour at INSEAD. “The competition with London was fierce, but now that London is out, Paris is going to be the de facto economic capital of the EU,” he says. New York is losing traction economically, partly because of the US-China trade war, says IFDAQ co-CEO Daryl de Jorí.

A further boost for Paris, defining it as the world centre of luxury, is the ever-increasing dominance of Paris-based conglomerates LVMH and Kering. Godart makes the comparison with Silicon Valley’s dominance of technology. “It's a classical capitalist concentration dynamic, a clustering effect.”

The French capital’s central role seems assured. “Paris has the allure, the glamour and is the home base for two huge influential fashion groups that anchors it,” says Julie Gilhart, industry veteran and chief development officer of Tomorrow Consulting. “In my fashion history I’ve seen Milan, London and New York going up and down. The only thing that remains pretty solid is Paris.”

In 2019, the world’s 10 largest luxury companies, led by LVMH and Kering, increased their share of industry revenue , accounting for 51 per cent of all sales by the top 100 companies. The Covid-19 pandemic has since accelerated luxury polarisation, with high-performing companies weathering the storm while smaller players struggled. Analysts say these conditions provide fertile grounds for M&A , with market consolidation to the benefit of the biggest players. “Paris is still taking a lot of advantage from its last 20 years of mergers,” says de Jorí. Since 2000, LVMH and Kering between them have acquired or bought stakes in more than 10 leading luxury brands.

London versus Milan

The rise of London over Milan is a less straightforward story and might reflect a progressive weakening of Milan’s status rather than a strengthening of London’s role, says Godart. While both cities are facing economic uncertainties ranging from the impact of Brexit to the economic hit of the Covid-19 pandemic, London has a more dynamic economy. “For London, it’s much more of a temporary [challenging economic] state and we believe it will soon recover, while Milan never really recovered from the economic crisis of 2008,” says de Jorí. “The Italian economy is too weak to build more traction and interest from brands.”

The Italian fashion industry and the country’s wealth are also distributed among different cities, including Florence, Venice and Rome, rather than concentrated in one place, as in London and in Paris. Godart says that the “concentration effect” is absolutely critical for the relevance of cities such as Paris, London, Tokyo and Moscow. Besides Italy, Spain, Germany and China are all examples of countries where power is shared between two or more cities.

David Gilbert, professor of urban and historical geography at Royal Holloway, University of London, who has researched the geographies of fashion, says London appears the most vulnerable of the four capitals because it derives its status not from the luxury brands based there but from its reputation as a source of edginess and innovation. “London, more than the others, depends on that churn of ideas. You can imagine another city doing the same things that London does in terms of creativity, innovation and avant-garde,” he says. Post-Brexit, rising prices and economic uncertainties could well squeeze independent designers out of the city.

The role of fashion weeks

In the IFDAQ Index, Paris, New York, London and Milan will maintain their dominance until at least 2030. But the Index predicts a gradual decrease in importance as other cities step up their influence — including Tokyo, Los Angeles, Shanghai and Moscow.

A key factor is the likely continuing global impact of the four cities’ fashion weeks, says Godart. These will endure despite current industry debates over the fashion calendar and the future of fashion weeks . “To some extent they will evolve: there will be more diversity and other fashion capitals, but you don’t change institutions in one year,” Godart says. He notes that the four fashion capitals retain the necessary infrastructure and organisational experience — as well as the luxury brands — to trigger the most interest on a global scale.

Gilbert says that in the early 2000s it was commonly anticipated that the future fashion order would shift towards cities such as Shanghai, Mumbai or São Paulo. Instead, the traditional order has reasserted itself over the past 20 years. “Those fashion capitals are locked in symbolically in a way that almost becomes self-fulfilling,” he says. “As long as the global elite looks at those places as markets with elite status, that stays in place.”

Gilhart is wary of making long-term predictions, particularly after the Covid-19 pandemic has led to industry reevaluation of the structure and meaning of fashion weeks. “Covid has made us rethink everything, including what is valid about fashion week and what it’s not,” she says,

She adds that cities that might seem less relevant now could become important again by developing new formats or launching new trends. Shanghai is well positioned to become a force thanks to an abundance of talent and creativity. Launched in 2001, Shanghai Fashion Week has steadily increased its relevance on the global fashion calendar, attracting international buyers with shows that mix new local talents and international brands eager to tap into the Chinese market. The showcase was the first to return as a largely physical event in October 2020 after the Covid-19 pandemic disrupted the international show calendar. “We will see a time when New York, London, Milan, Paris and Shanghai will be equally as relevant,” Gilhart predicts.

Moscow: City to watch

Moscow may be a significant city to watch. It is forecast to grow in importance for the fashion industry, surpassing Shanghai in 2026, according to the IFDAQ Global Cities Consumer IPX (Index). De Jorí says the core reasons why Shanghai will plateau in the Index include a decrease in Chinese consumer purchasing power as population growth slows as well as likely slower growth patterns both in salaries and in GDP.

The concentration of wealth and consumption in Moscow will boost its rise in prominence. In Russia, the capital city accounts for more than 70 per cent of luxury consumption, contrasting with China where luxury consumption and wealth are spread among many first-tier cities. Anna Lebsak-Kleimans, CEO of Fashion Consulting Group Russia, adds that luxury brands rarely open stores beyond three cities in Russia — Moscow, Saint Petersburg and Sochi.

European and American luxury brands dominate the Russian luxury sector. Moscow has hosted its own fashion week, Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Russia, since 2000, but local fashion businesses remain small and mostly focused on the local market, says Lebsak-Kleimans. But she notes that segments of the local fashion market, such as modest wear and eco-friendly underwear, have developed fast in the last six years, boosted by direct-to-consumer e-commerce and more government support for local industries after US sanctions imposed in 2014.
