Street Style Has Spoken: This Is Fashion’s Next It Bag

If you can believe it, fashion month for S/S 20 is finally
behind us. Now that New York, London, Milan, and Paris Fashion
Weeks are all merely not-so-distant memories, it’s time to
reflect on what we saw both on and off the runways over the past 30
or so days. Recently, my fellow editors broke down the
bag trends that are sure to blow up next spring, the brands
that were most prevalent among the street style set this
season, the pant style
everyone wore in Paris,
the shoe trends that reigned supreme, as well as the top
runway looks from all four cities. If that wasn’t enough, I
can promise you there is more to come, starting with this very
post.

After carefully scrutinizing all the street style snaps as they
poured in from every city, it came to my attention that there’s a
new It bag among the fashion set. Interestingly, it’s by a brand
you might have heard of, but quite possibly not seeing as it only
launched in 2017 (but has already become a favorite among fashion
insiders, influencers, and even
celebs). The brand I’m talking about is none other than

Wandler, and the bag, called the Georgia, launched last month
as a part of the F/W 19 collection. Before we get to the hard
evidence (and by that I mean recent street style), I thought I’d
share why I think the bag is on the way to fame.

It’s a classic, baguette shape; small, but not too small;
sleek and structured; comes in a handful of materials and colors
(all of which are neutral for now); comes with a long strap and
short top handle for carrying options; and, as far as designer bags
go, isn’t astronomically expensive with the various versions
currently available ranging from $765 to $1060. Considering that
the bag is timeless in design, if one can budget for it, the price
is warranted by its investment-worthiness. Combine these things
with the fact
that I have a knack for identifying It bags, and you should
have all the information you need to just trust me on this one.

So, see the bag in action below, and then, of course, stick
around to shop it while you can, as I have a pretty good feeling it
will be selling out soon.

Looney’s brown bag is the perfect seasonless color to take her
well into the New Year.

Just
the pop of animal print we all need.

If
you love wearing prints and colors, the easy-to-match black bag
just might be the way to go.

Of
course, it looks just as good with neutrals, too.

When
you don’t have to decide between the It bag and It shoes…

The
simple style is the perfect complement to Blanca Miró’s statement
‘fit.

Moda
Operandi’s Fashion and Buying Director Lisa Aiken is on to
something with the matching animal-print shoes.

Who
said black and brown (or black and blue, for that matter) don’t
match?

Net-a-Porter
Global Buying Director Elizabeth von der Goltz knows an It bag when
she sees it, and we spotted her with this bag more than once
throughout the month.
