Personally, I’ll always gravitate towards handbag styles that are eternal in their appeal. Part of this is because my budget means I can only think of shopping sensibly and with the utmost consideration—if I’m going to spend upwards of four figures on something, it’s going to stay in my wardrobe or accessory rotation for life. However, with many designers taking to their archives and celebrating significant milestones, there’s also a nostalgia woven in with 2023’s designer handbag offering; something that’s sure to appease anyone who currently subscribes to the Y2K aesthetic. Classic handbags from years gone by are being reimagined anew and winning over a legion of fashion-hungry fans in the process. This only reinforces my point—a designer handbag can and should transcend a lifetime.
Then there are the jovial bags of which I speak. Just because it would be nonsensical if I, someone who exclusively wears neutrals, were to treat myself to a hot-pink handbag, that doesn’t mean that’s the case for you. If bright colours and bold patterns are integral to your style signature, a bag to match is undoubtedly the correct choice. And there is plenty of this ilk to choose from for 2023, too; don’t you worry. From the latest creations at Bottega Veneta and Celine to the brands making their luxury arm-candy debut and the new classics to covet, keep scrolling to find your forever bag from 2023’s designer handbag line-up.
