Yes, trends are not for everyone, well, not always will the top trend of the season apply to your wardrobe or the place where you live. However, if you have a nuanced sense of fashion and understand how to pick the styles that can be seamlessly accommodated to suit your personal aesthetics then you’re in the right place.

We understand that trends come and go and a lot of them are not really worth the eyeballs they seem to grab, however, since this year we’re gravitating a lot toward minimalism we think it’s worth the attention. The runways are doling out a lot of simplistic, functional styles that we’re certainly wishing for more. So, if you’re planning to give your wardrobe a refresh and want to add some season-defining trends, we suggest you start with the bags. This year they’re colourful, larger-than-life and certainly worth the investment. SS24’s bag trends will continue through the end of the year, so, here are the top contenders for this year’s must-own bags. We love them, and they’re not just aesthetically elevating but are so functional, you wouldn’t really have to look elsewhere to tuck in your purse or phone.

Top Handle Flap Bags

A demure classic that’s been around since the 80s and 90s, this timeless bag style with it’s simple, almost predictable design evokes a sense of nostalgia. The epitome of ladylike fashion when matched with elegant A-line skirts or your work trousers, flap bags have certainly made a comeback this season and it looks like they’ll grace the runways of AW24 too.

Classy Red and Black Mini Bag
₹3,200

Crochet

SS24 showed us why sustainability matters for us and our planet, and in continuing with this trend the crochet bags have slowly moved back into the forefront. First it was the tops and then the dresses and now crochet bags in bright hues are making quite a splash. So, climate warrior or not, carrying a sustainable crochet tote or a mini crochet clutch is definitely a way to make a loud statement about your love for our planet.

Raffia Sling Bag - IshqMe

The Carryalls

Whether you’re raiding your mom’s closet or your own and plan to throw it all in when you head out for the night, the carryall bag is right there to make it all happen! Seriously, this year’s super trend, the midsized carryall sure is a girl’s best friend. Because, you can just about carry your whole world in it and be happy doing it.

Luxe Suede Mini Backpack
₹̶3̶,̶5̶0̶0̶  ₹1,575

The Slouchy Hobo

While the oversized tote is still shining bright across the runways, the slouchy hobo with its roomy space is certainly the second in line when it comes to favourites of the season. The crescent shaped and characteristically large space and bendy curved aesthetic might slump when you set it down but they’re not really going off the fashion radar.

Denim Smocked Tote Bag
₹3,000

The Timeless Mini

Who said bags must be big and roomy all the time? They can be small and petite and just about enough to carry your phone or maybe just some pocket change. Well, the mini bag is being reinvented time and again. Well, Sandy Liang’s mini bow bag was certainly a head turner. But bow or not, you could pick a diminutive version this season and not really feel it’s out of place.

Sapphire Blue Beaded Handheld Clutch
₹2,990

The oversized tote, the bright, colourful shoulder bags in rainbow hues to the bucket bag and the oversized clutch, SS24 saw quite a list of contenders for the bag trends of the season. But, interestingly most of them will continue to remain a favourite in AW24. But, whether you’re an avid follower of fashion or not, these bags are worth an investment, after all, they’re much more functional and stylish too. So, are you ready to buy one of these? Shop here.
