Ladies' bag is a unique thing. Invented once exclusively with a utilitarian function, quite quickly it became an object denoting the status and position of a woman. So it was in the Middle Ages, it continues now, and it is unlikely that women’s desire to buy an expensive and fashionable bag will ever come to naught. Given that a good branded bag cannot be cheap, many of them have literally become a way of investing money, along with jewelry and art.
Biker Bag or Biker Bag
This bag model refers us to the style of bikers or motorcyclists. Metal buckles, rivets and zippers - these are the details that are always present on the biker bag. In addition, it is quite large, roomy, soft in shape and made of leather.
One of the most famous biker bags was created by the designer of the fashion house Balenciaga Nicolas Zheskye in 2005. This bag was available in different sizes from quite large to very compact and was presented in different colors - black, blue, turquoise. The bag has become incredibly popular and holds its position today - to buy such a handbag at a low price will not work. Depending on the size, a biker bag from Balenciaga will cost you from 1 to 2 thousand dollars (56 700 - 113 500 rubles).
Her fans are supermodel Kate Moss, actress Sienna Miller and socialite Paris Hilton.
Hobo
This is what they call a round-shaped bag with a round handle and a fastener on top. The bag has a soft shape, a sufficiently large volume and perfectly complement the casual image. The most famous version of a hobo bag in the fashion world, of course, is a woven bag from the Italian brand Bottega Veneta, famous for its leather products.
The brand sews fashionable handbags from the middle of the 20th century and has become especially popular thanks to the special technique of weaving leather. Designers of the brand believe that their bag literally becomes a continuation of the female body, which is why it is so popular all over the world.
Bag bag
Under this name you will find a bag with a hard flat bottom and a soft top tightened to its ties. And the first association that comes to all fashion connoisseurs at the mention of the sack is the Louis Vuitton Noe bag. This model is considered a classic of the fashion house, and it was conceived as a compliment for one of the champagne producers. At his request, designers Louis Vuitton came up with a durable and stylish bag that can hold up to 5 bottles of champagne. In addition to an interesting shape that will complement any image, the bag stands out with the famous pattern on the skin in the form of a monogram LV - a symbol of the brand.
In addition to the timeless classics, designers offer a modern reading bag-sack. In the upcoming season, they have become a little smaller and more like pouches. Their handles are fastened to leather bracelets and are their logical continuation. They are sewn from incredible combinations of materials and colors, textures and decorative techniques.
Hard Bag (Handbag)
Perhaps the most popular and popular form, as it is suitable not only for everyday looks, but also has become an indispensable part of the wardrobe of a business woman. And this is no coincidence - the Handbag is feminine, elegant, strict and you can put folders with papers in it without the risk of damaging them.
The most famous Handbag bags in the world are, of course, Hermes models and its most famous representatives are Kelly and Birkin. This is not easy ladies' bags. Photos of celebrities around the world with them in their hands confirm the fact that these are objects of art and collectibles, and therefore they cost a lot. Both bags got their names by the names of famous women who inspired Hermes designers - these are Jane Birkin and Grace Kelly.
Baguette
This word refers not only to long French bread, but also to narrow long handbags with a short strap. They were invented by Sylvia Venturini, the owner and heiress of the Fendi fashion house. She wanted to create an elegant handbag that fits easily under her arm, like the baguette that the French also carry home after buying it at the bakery. Such a bag is useful to a lady who has entered a social event. On the one hand, she needs a bag to put lipstick on, and on the other, she needs to free her hands to talk and hold a glass of champagne. So the baguette bag was born, which became incredibly popular in the 90s of the last century.
If you think where you could see her, then it was definitely Sarah Jessica Parker in the TV series “Sex and the City” - her heroine had a whole collection of baguettes.
Flap bag
The history of the creation of this model of a handbag also belongs to the woman and she was guided by approximately the same desire - to remove the always interfering handbag from the woman’s hands and place it on her shoulder. This woman was Coco Chanel, who in 1955 presented to the public a small envelope bag with a small handle that closes on the valve. Today, many brands produce such small handbags, but the classic is still a Chanel model of stitched leather with a chain handle and a logo on the clasp at home.
Waist bag
Just a couple of years ago, we had a waist bag associated with man purses or conductor bags in public transport, and today they have filled all the catwalks and catalogs of fashion brands. Bright stylish leather handbags were invented by Marc Jacobs, the brands Sportmax, Noon by Noor and many others. This bag is suitable for both a casual look and an evening out. It is convenient to walk with her, go to meetings and dance - hands are free and the bag is in sight.
No less interesting is the proposal of designers in the new season to wear several identical small handbags in a row on the belt at once. This bag and accessory are interesting and unusual.
Saddle bag
Initially, this bag model was designed for riding. Rounded forms did not interfere with either the horse or the rider. Also, the bag was easily attached to the saddle, accommodating everything you need. Its rigid form did not crumple and did not deform the contents, and the lid protected the property from rain. The modern Saddle bag is a small ladies bag on a hard-shaped strap with a rounded bottom and a straight top, that is, it has retained its original features.
The saddle bag was especially popular in the 70s and fit perfectly into the hippie style. Now she is back in fashion and at the shows of Chloé, Christian Dior, Loewe. In the new season, the bags will certainly have large metal fittings, catchy fasteners and bright shades. Also, such bags are complemented by interesting details - a long fringe from below, tassels, chains and other elements.
Round bag
The classic round handbag was invented by the Dolce and Gabbana brand many years ago. It is small, perfectly round, on a thin strap or chain. She is feminine, unusual and comfortable. And in the spring-summer 2018 season, the brands Alice + Olivia, Mansur Gavriel and others replenished the variety of round bags.
Such bags originate from hat boxes, which in the century before last were themselves a work of art, and travel models were just bags for transporting chic ladies' hats. Later, these handbags made of leather became smaller, more elegant and turned into an evening accessory.
