If there’s one accessory that epitomises the ’90s, it’s surely the baguette bag. Just one glimpse at its teeny proportions and dainty shoulder strap will take you thundering down memory lane to a time when jeans were low-slung and crop-tops were in plentiful supply. For me, the trend has connotations of chick-flick heroines, glamazon girl-band members and, well, Regina George. As an accessory, it certainly had a particular ‘look’ attached to it.
As someone who prefers low-key silhouettes and practical handbags, it’s fair to say that I was initially dubious about the baguette’s return to fame. But, before you dismiss it like I did, let me assure you that the 2021 iteration has a different flavour to the ’90s original. Along with many other spring/summer trends, the baguette 2.0 has taken on a more minimalist spin, and the majority of styles this season come unprinted in shades of black, brown, cream and faded pastel.
