Everyone Wants a Jacquemus Bag—These Are the 8 Best on the Market
In the past few years, Jacquemus bags have quickly become the It accessories to own. Just this week, designer Simon Porte Jacquemus was presented with the 2024 Neiman Marcus Award for Innovation in the Field of Fashion by Anna Wintour. Although Jacquemus started his brand at age 19 in 2009, it was his S/S 2018 La Bomba collection that is known for propelling him to the forefront of the fashion scene. He continues to amaze the industry with his inventive marketing campaigns and runway shows, the latter often set in unique locations with meticulously thought-out themes. His pieces have been worn by all your favorite A-Listers (Gigi Hadid, Dua Lipa… the list goes on), and the brand's tiny Le Chiquito bag is in many closets. But while you may have already seen that bag plenty of times, there's a variety of bags on the brand's roster that feel fresher and deserve the same amount of attention.
If you're looking to splurge on a bag or simply admire the work of Simon Porte Jacquemus, keep scrolling. We've rounded up Who What Wear's eight favorite bags of the brand, new and old. Act quickly because the best of Jacquemus sells out faster than you can click "add to cart."
1. Jacquemus Le Petit Calino
Debuting on the runways in January (in the arms of Gigi Hadid), the Le Petit Calino bag is the latest Jacquemus bag that is garnering attention for 2024. It's the perfect clutch for the minimalists, while still offering interest with its organic ship and metal ring. It also comes with a removable cross-body strap, if you'd prefer to wear it that way.
2. Jacquemus Le Bisou Bag
The Le Bisou bag takes your average '90s-inspired pochette to the next level with metallic or furry textures and beaded straps.
3. Jacquemus La Pochette Rond Carre Clutch
If the Le Petit Calino is the clutch for the minimalists, then the La Pochette Rond Carre is for the maximalists. Even paired with a simple LBD, the silver version will have you standing out as best dressed no matter the occasion. The bag is also available in black and cream.
5. Jacquemus Le Bambinou Bag
The Bambino bag was very well-loved, so Jacquemus decided to release a puffy version and we're all thankful for it. The brand even used the shape of the bag for its pop-up in Seoul. In comparison to the Bambino, the Bambino's cushiony padded leather exterior makes for a more playful touch. The bag is now available in leather, denim, and even nylon. With its softer look, it's also more suitable for every day than its predecessor was.
6. Jacquemus Le Panier Soli Tote
It's been a few years since the Le Panier Soli Tote was released at the S/S 2020 show, but we still see it as a prime pick for summer and warm-weather travels.
7. Jacquemus Le Chiquito Bag
It's hard to think of Jacquemus without thinking of the Le Chiquito bag, the tiny bag that took the internet by storm when first released. Although we prefer the newer and more practical styles that come from the brand, we support your decision if it's still on your wishlist.
8. Jacquemus Le Bambino Bag
The Le Bambino bag is a classic in Jacquemus' collection that has been reinvented many times in different colorways and fabrications. It's been a popular pick since its release in 2020 but went viral last year due to the brand's AI-generated ads showcasing the bag driving around Paris. (This arguably started a marketing trend—leave it to Jacquemus to innovate in all areas of fashion.)
