Fashion and style are subjective, but what about the timeless? With different styles and tastes when it comes to clothing and accessories, we can all have thoughts about what is timeless with our own wardrobe in mind. We take a look at the various fashion houses and their signature bags to find the perfect, timeless bag that suits your style.
Bags for life
The Row
Since its launch in 2006, Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen's brand The Row has been associated with "understated luxury". For those who appreciate craftsmanship of the highest quality, The Row should be high on your wish list when looking for a bag to invest in. All bags are made in Italy from the finest leather and have stamped logos that you have to look twice to notice - classic and tasteful! The Margaux bag is a sophisticated, handheld bag that is perfect for those who need to carry a lot in everyday life. For something more understated and minimalist, the N/S Park Tote has become a favorite among many for its large space and versatile use. It comes in three different sizes and is the perfect everyday bag for any occasion. For the perfect bag that takes you from day to night, the elegant Sofia bag is the best choice! It is the most classic one can imagine, when picturing the perfect, small bag. Regardless of style and wardrobe, bags from The Row will fit right in.
KHAITE
The Cool Girl brand Khaite has taken the world by storm since its debut in the fashion world in 2016. Designer Catherine Holstein draws inspiration from power women, powerful silhouettes, and strong contrasts she finds in her beloved New York. Khaite is an investment in quiet luxury, and you can easily find a favorite among the brand's signature bags. The Lotus Tote is inspired by the folds and shape of a soft scarf, while also having a structured form, and has room for your most important belongings in a busy everyday life. It comes in two sizes, so you can choose the one that fits as a work or travel bag or a small city bag that you throw over your arm. The perfect, small everyday bag must be the Elena Shoulder Bag, which is inspired by the classic box bag, but in a slouchy version so that it becomes the perfect combination of classic and modern. A tighter and more minimalist type is the simple tote Amelia, which is a classic handheld bag with a large compartment, perfect for a laptop or for travel.
Toteme
The minimalist brand Toteme was launched by fashion guru Elin Kling in 2014. With one foot in Stockholm and one foot in New York, Toteme has developed into a leading brand in quiet luxury with its logo-less designs and, now, since 2022, for its luxury bags. The T-lock has quickly taken the world by storm and has been seen on fashionistas such as Katie Holmes. The bag has a characteristic, yet timeless look with its soft, yet structured shape and a simple clasp shaped like a T. It comes in camel, black, and off-white and even has a little sister, the T-lock Clutch. If you want a simpler bag that can fit a laptop and smaller essentials, the Slim Tote Bag is a good choice - it gives you exactly what it promises! Toteme has also redefined the classic bucket bag and has, with this, created, yes you guessed it right, the Bucket Bag. The bag is sculptural and functional with its handheld, wide strap and detachable shoulder strap. You can take this with you from everyday life, to coffee at a sidewalk cafe, and to late restaurant visits.
Alaïa
The legendary designer Azzedine Alaïa is known for highlighting the feminine with sharp contrasts, cut-outs, and soft silhouettes. The bags are designed with the same vision, with different inspirations, but with functionality and elegance as the most important supporters. You carry the Mina Tote as a piece of art! The bag is "laser cut" with Alaïa's signature pattern, inspired by windows in Arabic architecture, known as mashrabiya. Mina comes in several sizes and you can have anything from large travel bags to the small party bag - regardless of size, it is versatile in its use. We cannot forget to mention the bag that won all our hearts in 2022 - the it-bag Le Cœur. The heart-shaped bag took the world by storm and is still sought after for its beautiful appearance, but also its good space! As designer Pieter Mulier told fashion magazine Harper's Bazaar "They understood that they could wear it from morning to evening. Almost like a jewel - a very desirable, feminine and 'cute' jewel'". Another, slightly more understated, favorite from Alaïa is Le Papa, named after the former designer's nickname. The bag plays on the classic, but has its unique details and is the perfect little black (but only those who know, know!).
