The truth is, you’ll struggle to find any stylish woman who hasn’t either a) tried out a throwback trend from the ‘90s, or b) still owns a original piece from this decade (of their own or passed down). An iconic year where Kate Moss’s slip dress made its mark and Julia Roberts made a case for baggy jeans, a white T-shirt and leather blazer, there are so many trends that have made their way back into our wardrobes. And one that’s stealing the show for yet another season is the shoulder bag.
Be it the new Celine Ava model Kaia Gerber has been wearing with absolutely every outfit, or the Triomphe style that’s as popular as the matching Celine logo belt everyone has been wearing. It bag labels Manu Atelier and JW Pei have also created nod to the ‘90s bags in an array of different shades. But if you want to get the true nostalgic feel, why not opt for a pre-loved Fendi baguette? It’s all about that hands-free, effortless slung on the shoulder look that brings back the cool-girl era in all its glory. Need some help with which style to go for? We’ve found the 9 shoulder bags every fashion person has been proudly showing off on Instagram lately.
