Half-moon love: The bag trend you need to know
Our love of accessories is nothing new and with the cascade of bag trends emerging out of the spring/summer 2022 fashion weeks, you can hardly blame us. Alongside the retro hobo bags and oversized totes seen on the runways of Saint Laurent, Gucci, and Bottega Veneta was this season’s newest “it” style: the half-moon bag.
Spotted in the collections of Fendi, Balenciaga, and Loewe, the half-moon-shaped bag is a 2022 refresh to last year’s famed baguette bag.
This season’s it-girls (Kim Kardashian included) have dubbed Balenciaga’s hardware-studded “Le Cagole” bag as one of the trend’s must-shop styles.
