Every season offers its fair share of must-have accessories. For a period, opera gloves were everywhere. Then everyone became obsessed with Coach's puffy Tabby bag. So all eyes were on the jewelry, the bags, the belts and even the hats models sported down recent runways. Turns out, Fall 2024's top bag trend kills two sartorial birds in one shot because bracelet bags also double as jewelry.
Since trends take some time to trickle down to the masses via fast fashion, the current inventory is mainly confined to designer brands. Alaïa, Chloe and Prada lead the way with dangling bags attached to the wrists, and in some cases elbows, of almost every model in their respective lineup. They range from hobo bags to fringe- or-stud-accented bucket bags. All pretty impressive forms of arm candy and each offers enough space to cart around your bare necessities.
