Luxury Bags to Gift This Christmas
A beautiful bag is the accessory that says (and does) it all. Far more than a practicality in which to tote your belongings around town, luxury handbags have always been among fashion’s most renowned design icons – which is why they make wonderful gifts for the woman who has everything this Christmas. Whether your lucky recipient is a collector of the classics or the first to adopt the season’s boldest trends, our list of the ultimate luxury bags to gift caters to every accessory lover. All you have to do is resist the urge to treat yourself to one, too.
For the Fashion Follower
Shopping for someone who always has their finger on the pulse? Coach’s Tabby shoulder bag ticks all the boxes. It’s trendy enough to turn heads, but classic enough to stand the test of time – and packs just the right punch of under-the-radar branding thanks to its elongated C logo.
For the Traditionalist
If the lady on your Christmas shopping list is less of a fashion risk-taker, opt for a brand with a reputation for time-honoured quality and understated style. Enter Mulberry – styles like the Amberley cross-body bag will appeal to those with a taste for the traditional thanks to their simple shape and chic colour paletting.
For the Party Animal
Every good-time girl needs a new bag for party season – and Jacquemus’ Le Bambino is just the ticket. It might not be big enough to fit her phone, but that doesn’t matter – the phone in question needs to stay firmly in her hand, capturing the evening’s glitziest goings-on.
For the Practical One
Know someone who carries their whole life around in their handbag? Equipped with zips, pockets and space galore, this roomy Marc Jacobs tote is practical without compromising on style cred – and a testament to the power of a bold typeface.
For the Collector
Any fashion fan worth their salt needs a Loewe Puzzle bag to complete their collection – so when it comes to shopping for that special someone this festive season, why not do the honours? Butter-soft leather and a unique origami-inspired construction place it among this generation’s most memorable accessories.
For the Quiet Luxury Lover
Doing away with logos and blingy hardware, Bottega Veneta’s intricate Intrecciato weave is instantly recognisable to those in the know. That’s why a classic style like the Jodie is a no-brainer when Christmas shopping for the woman who prefers her wardrobe to whisper rather than shout.
For the Y2K Fan
With its turn-of-the-century silhouette and recognisable monogrammed clasp, Saint Laurent’s Le 5-à-7 shoulder bag is the perfect gift for vintage lovers. As you’d expect from a bag named after happy hour, it’s a ready-made day-to-night classic.
For the Busy One
If your giftee is blessed with a busy schedule of work and play, she’ll need a bag that caters to any and all occasions. With their smooth leather construction and slick gold-tone hardware, DeMellier’s carry-alls never fail to fulfil the brief – the Vancouver cross-body promises to look good with everything.
