From Saint Laurent to Coach, These Are the Only 6 Designer Bags Celebs Are Wearing RN
When it comes to luxury items, the celebrity crowd can realistically have anything under the sun, and if you ask us, it speaks volumes about what you choose when your options are virtually endless. That's why this season, we're paying close attention to the handbags that the A-list crowd is carrying because not only is there a significant amount of crossover and repetition among their favorite bags, but the price points on some of them are far more accessible than what you might have guessed.
All that is to say that celebrity-approved designer handbags *are* the moment. Whether it's Bella Hadid's Coach Brooklyn Bag that she's worn on repeat or the new Saint Laurent It bag that Hailey Bieber and Laura Harrier both adore, the following six handbags are selling out at lightening speeds, proving that they're the only carryalls to know now.
Coach Brooklyn Bag
When Bella Hadid steps out in a new look, nine times out of ten, her outfit credits are made up of ultra-luxury items with price tags that reflect it. But she's surprised us recently by backing the fall's hottest under-$500 bag. On several occasions, we've spotted her sporting the Coach Brooklyn Bag, a slouchy carryall tote that is not only in high demand but is also delightfully more affordable than 90% of the It bags on the market right now. Hadid's is a black leather iteration but the bag also comes in on-trend burgundy and brown suede versions, too.
Saint Laurent Le 5 À 7 Bea Bag
Ever since Saint Laurent debuted its Le 5 À 7 baguette shoulder bag in mid-2021, celebs have hardly wavered in their love for the style, and the newest iteration in the bag's family, the Bea, its fan base is only doubling down on their loyalty. Hailey Bieber and Laura Harrier are the names we most often associate with the bag and quite frankly, Bieber has carried her leopard-print version so often this season that she's single-handedly made the bag go viral.
The Row Bindle Bag
Dakota Johnson's outfits have just been so good lately. I don't know what it is, but there's something about her effortless approach to fall style that has been resonating with me especially well, and it's this denim-on-denim outfit I can't get out of my mind—more specifically, her suede tote bag. An impossible-to-track-down brown suede version of The Row's large Bindle Bag, it's capacious, practical, and so on-trend for fall 2024.
Manu Atelier Le Cambon 35 Bag
Katie Holmes is the queen of elevated everyday style, a skill she flexes daily while running around NYC. One of her latest looks stands out the most because of the handbag she chose to pair with it: Manu Atelier's Le Cambon 35 Bag in grey suede, a top-handle bag featuring an ultra-chic skinny belt. It has been a viral piece on TikTok, Instagram, and Pinterest all season long, so to see Holmes carrying it has only solidified the bag's reigning status.
Bottega Veneta Lauren 1980 Clutch
Let's be real—when is a celeb not carrying a Bottega Veneta bag? While the brand's more popular silhouettes like the Andiamo and Hop are what we're used to spotting the most of, Elsa Hosk opted for the beautifully underrated Lauren 1980, an oversized clutch done in the brand's signature intrecciato leather with a frame and tab closure. It may be an archival remake, but the clutch—especially in the luxe barolo shade—couldn't feel more current.
Alaïa Le Teckel Bag
Alaïa's East-West shoulder bag has been a hit all year long thanks to its fresh silhouette inspired by the elongated shape of a Dachshund (named after the French word for the breed), and Ashley Graham is simply the latest in a sweep of celebs and insiders who are carrying the bag. She opted for a white version to carry while in New York during fashion week.
