As fashion month comes to a close, the buzz around spring 2023 fashion trends is building. One of the best parts of plotting next season’s ‘fits is, of course, the bags. Accessories lovers, we’ve got excellent news: so many statement bag styles (hi, sparkles!) are headed our way, and we’ve got all the deets on the most covetable trends you’ll wanna tote around immediately.
In addition to the most dazzling sparkly styles, metallic fabrics are back in a big way, reflecting the major Y2K influence that continues to dominate our feeds (and closets); throw on some jewelry along with a glimmering bag to add a little extra bling to your outfit. Fringe that’s long enough to trip on flowed down the NYFW runways at PatBo and Vaquera, while bags with the coolest textures and all kinds of quirky details also played in amping up the energy this season.
