1. Full Pelt
It’s time to get back in touch with your furry side! Full pelt handbags are going to be super in this season, with brands like Chanel, Shrimps and Oscar de la Renta all coming out with svelte and sophisticated purses that show off more texture than previous incarnations. Don’t worry though, if you are ethically conscious there are plenty of faux versions of the trend to keep you happy.
2. Reptilia
Reptile skin patterns are also going to be a big thing again this season, but not necessarily in authentic colours. To be totally on trend, you are going to want to find a reptilian style bag that compliments your favourite colour scheme. Some brands are even going as far as producing multi-coloured, almost iridescent examples.

3. Boxy
It might not the sleekest or most practical trend, but it looks like a case of the boxier, the better this fall. Brands like Gucci, Roksanda, and again, Oscar de la Renta, are going all out with almost a miniature suitcase style to their clutches and handbags. I don’t know about you, but they give me a chic school lunch box vibe!
This fall, boxy handbags are making a comeback! Gucci, Roksanda, and Oscar de la Renta are all incorporating this trend into their designs. These bags are reminiscent of a miniature suitcase, making them a unique and stylish addition to any wardrobe.
The boxy shape of these bags is both fashionable and functional. They are spacious enough to fit all of your everyday essentials, as well as any additional items you may need to carry around. This makes them perfect for busy days running errands or for days when you just want to look extra stylish.
These bags come in a variety of materials, from leather to suede to canvas. They also come in a wide range of colors, from neutrals like black and brown to vibrant hues like pink and blue. No matter what your style is, there is sure to be a boxy bag to match it.
The boxy trend is perfect for those who want to make a statement with their accessories. It is a great way to add a unique touch to any outfit. So if you are looking for a new handbag to add to your collection this fall, consider a boxy style.
4. Around the Neck
This won’t be a trend for those of you who like to carry around most of their worldly possessions, but smaller clutch type bags to be worn around the neck are going to be huge this fall. Marc Jacobs in particular is leading the charge on this look, with Emporio Armani following close behind!
5. Thick Chains
It’s not just about the bag itself this fall, it’s also about the chain! In 2018, the motto is the thicker the better, so the more cumbersome, heavy, and ornate your bag chain looks, the more on trend you are going to be!
