5 must-have bags for Spring/Summer 2021

Spring-summer 2021 is the dream of every bag-addicted. Stylists have proposed many models, all different from each other, designed to match every outfit and every mood: hobo, shoulder, bucket, shopper, leather, raffia, pastel colors or in classic shades, mini or oversized. 

The fans of Bottega Veneta will continue to show off Jodie, Padded Cassette and the new Triangle Bag; the minimalists will opt for the Cleo by Prada, the Flamenco by Loewe, The Jackie 1961 by Gucci and the Kiss Bag by Chloé; while those who want to dare will probably fall in love with the bold design of the Cut-Ot by Givenchy or the Roman Stud by Valentino.

Which one do you prefer? If you don't know how to pick, G-Club suggests you the 5 must-have bags of SS21.

Cleo Bag - Prada

Following the success of Re-Nylon in recent months, Prada presented during the Multiple Views fashion show a new accessory that will become a must-have for the hot season. The Cleo Bag is already popular among influencers such as Chiara Ferragni, Gilda Ambrosio and Caro Daur who have chosen it for its clean and minimal lines. Born as a restyling of Prada's design in the 90s and described as a perfect "synthesis of classicism and futurism", the hobo features a slightly rounded shape on the bottom and sides. Designed to be worn in different ways, over the shoulder or as a clutch, is available not only in classic black and white, but also in pastel pink and aqua green.

Price: from €1,600 on the Prada website.

Burrow Bag - Off-White

A few weeks ago Off-White presented the new SS21 Adam is Eve collection. Virgil Abloh brought to the runway a co-ed show, with pieces designed to develop a hybrid language between menswear and womenswear codes, between tailoring and street vibes. Accessorizing the power suits and other creations was the Burrow Bag. Created as an evolution of the Meteor shower graphic motif with its circular carving, in turn, inspired by the craters formed by meteorite rain, the new model features a curved, perforated base and an adjustable shoulder strap with metal details. Made of nappa leather and suede, the Burrow Bag is available in 5 colorways: black, white, red, camel and ochre.

Price: from €825 on Off-White's website.

Pillow Tabby Bag - Coach

Stuart Vevers sourced from the Coach archives and reinvented a 1970s design, creating the new Pillow Tabbies. The bag is made of super-soft leather, has a padded look that, as its name suggests, recalls a pillow; two detachable straps that make it easy to carry it by hand or over the shoulder. The colors are one of the elements that make the item even more appealing: candy pink, forest green, granite, ivory, black. To launch the new accessory, Coach hired Juergen Teller who photographed Jennifer Lopez, Paloma Elsesser, Binx Walton and Camila Morrone with the Pillow Tabbies, also in an oversized version made exclusively for the campaign.

Price: €550 on Coach's website.

Moonlight Bag - Fendi

Silvia Venturini Fendi first brought it to the runway during the SS21 collection show, and now the Moonlight Bag has finally hit the stores. Definitely, the new satchel bag, with its versatile silhouette, perfect for any outfit, will be a must-have of the next season. The features?  Adjustable shoulder strap; round structure, embellished on the sides with rigid tortoiseshell effect details; front flap decorated with hand stitching and metal closure with the iconic FF logo. On Instagram, influencers are already wearing the Moonlight Bag in all its colors, from pastel blue to olive green, but, above all, in the brown version.

Price: €1,550.00 on Fendi's website.

Cut-Out - Givenchy

Matthew Williams' first collection as Givenchy's creative director has one of next season's it-bags hidden away. It's called Cut-Out and features sharp, broken lines that recreate the shape of a "V" at the top. The aggressive look of the accessory is completed by the chain strap formed by many intertwined "G". The new bag is declined in a wide range of colors: from brown to pink, from cream to purple.
