The ultimate day-to-night heroes, cross-body bags are the one trend that will never our side. In AW19, look out for utility-inspired styles with striped straps or, for an intense hit of colour, try sports-luxe designs in bold primary tones.
An iconic design detail favoured by various fashion houses, quilting is making a comeback – and in AW19, it’s going one step further. While leather and PU pieces still remain relevant, sports-luxe styling is also gaining momentum next season, with soft, padded textures taking on the classic trend – find it on everything from cross-body bags to backpacks.
From the daily grind to weekend adventures, backpacks are the bags to rely on when we need to go hands-free. As we head into next season, press refresh with down-sized styles in plush cord – we like how the golden yellow hue works for now too. For commuters, reflective designs in animal prints present the perfect fusion of fashion and functionality.
