The accessory update: Bucket bags

In recent seasons, the bucket bag has gone from fleeting trend to bona-fide closet essential. The reason for this deceptively simple style’s stratospheric success? Let us count the ways. For starters, it’s capacious enough to fit all your city essentials yet compact enough to carry every day. This versatility also extends to styling: with its signature clean lines, a bucket bag promises to work with every look in your existing closet, from off-duty denims to summer silks and androgynous suiting. Not only does the design itself tick every box, with offerings cast in butter-soft leather, timeless logo prints and understated canvas (by every brand, from Italian powerhouses Fendi and Gucci to cult labels Acne Studios and Loewe), you’re sure to find yourself spoilt for choice.
