We found 10 of the coolest bags of the season. Discover and shop the bags below.

What are the hallmarks of a good handbag? Is the style? Durability? Function? Or is the weight of the logo inscribed on it? If you ask us, it’s a delicate balance of all these factors. However, making the right investment goes beyond this—it involves assessing how well the bag integrates into your wardrobe. Another crucial factor to consider is whether the style is merely a fleeting fad or a timeless silhouette that will sustain over the years. 

We get it; classic styles like the Gucci ‘Marmont’ or the Louis Vuitton ‘Neverfull’ can feel stale to the eyes. Bags that have been plastered over your social feeds, with every other influencer posing with the same style, can have a similar effect. How, then, do you stand without splurging on a bag that will soon be flushed out of the trend cycle? 

If you’re hunting for the coolest bags that have proven to live well past their 15 minutes of fame, then we have got you. From “ludicrously capacious handbags” to adorable minis, discover Buro247ME‘s curated edit of the coolest bags of the season. 

RABANNE ‘1969’ BAG

Given the fashion crowd’s current obsession with everything metallic, you can’t really go wrong with Rabanne, especially with the festive season around the corner. Famed for his use of chainmail and metal discs, the iconic Rabanne ‘1969’ bag in myriad styles has been dazzling in celebrity closets the world over. Rabanne’s collaborative collection with H&M has further amplified the demand for the brand’s shimmering collections, with those who couldn’t get their hands on the now sold-out capsule rushing to Rabanne stores. Our verdict? Undoubtedly one of the coolest bags of the season, the Rabanne ‘1969’ bag guarantees versatility and compliments.

COACH ‘TABBY’ BAG

It’s official; Coach is back. Not only has the brand landed on Gen Z’s radar, but the Coach ‘Tabby’ and ‘Pillow Tabby’ bags have staked their claim as the coolest bags of the season. Don’t believe us? A simple search for the hashtag #CoachTabby on Tiktok will reveal a whopping 50.2 million views (and counting) and countless unboxing videos. 

The Coach ‘Tabby’ range owes its popularity to several factors, but the nostalgic nature of the bag, originally debuted in the 1970s, might just be the key to wooing Gen Z. The cohort obsessed with all things “vintage,” particularly sleek shoulder bags has unsurprisingly gravitated towards Coach’s ‘Tabby’ collection. A diverse color palette and an attractive price point have further accentuated the bag’s appeal.
