Our Favourite Designer Bag Brands For Spring/Summer

The start of a new season has us itching to invest in a new bag. And from all-time classics to cult trend pieces, NET-A-PORTER has one of the best curated edits out there – here are the names to know…

CREATED IN PARTNERSHIP WITH NET-A-PORTER

The Pouch Large Gathered Leather Clutch, £2,090

We couldn’t round up the coolest bag brands and not include Bottega. The label has gone from strength to strength in recent seasons, and with a fresh summer colour palette applied to their cult designs, we suspect their popularity will only continue to rise. Peach and hot pink styles get our vote – pair them with everything from classic neutrals to sorbet hues.

Botsy Leather-Trimmed Raffia Shoulder Bag, £395

Handbags may not spring to mind when you think of Isabel Marant, but from raffia crossbodies to oversized pouches, the brand is delivering this spring/summer. Consider these the perfect everyday accessories for the season ahead – we promise, they’ll go with everything.

Dinner Roll Leather Shoulder Bag, £350

Since its genesis in 2015, Yuzefi has been the poster brand for affordable designer bags, and that doesn’t look set to change. We love their take on modern handbag characteristics, like quirky shapes, statement gold chains and neutral colours.

Willa Leather Clutch, £255

Fans of Loeffler Randall’s bow-fronted sandals will be thrilled to see their signature design applied to a statement summer clutch. From pink to floral, these plissé designs are a must for those who love a feminine aesthetic.

Cult Gaia burst onto the scene a few years back with their hero half-moon wooden bag, but their latest collection proves the brand is so much more than a one-trick pony. From quirky box designs to statement oversized beachy styles, shop now to wear on holiday for years to come.

If you’re after a well-made, affordable designer bag, then Oroton is a name to know. Whether it’s clutches, totes or crossbodies, the Aussie label makes simple, polished designs that work for day-to-night – we love this season’s pared-back, grown-up colour palette.

Much like Bottega, we couldn’t ignore Saint Laurent’s polished new designs – from the lust-worthy Le Carré to the slick Le Maillon, these smart, subtle designs will work your wardrobe harder season after season.

We’ve long been fans of Boyy’s belted dumpling style bags, and this new season update has only made us fall harder. Macramé and raffia finishes are making traditional shapes and styles feel more summer-ready, while smart pastel neutrals will work year-round.
