I Know You're Stylish If You Already Own This Under-the-Radar, Highly Chic Bag Trend

Those with a keen eye for trends have probably noticed a new-season bag quietly slip into fashion circles this season. Neither flashy nor ostentatious, this emerging handbag style hinges on a subtle and thoughtful embellishment that fashion people can't get enough of.
Fastened around the chicest bags in circulation right now, the belted bag trend is every fashion person's new favourite buy.
Appearing in Prada's spring/summer 2024 collection, the brand's new Buckle Handbag (£4,500) was one of the most-talked about items from the season, and fashion devotees haven't been able to stop thinking about it since. A strong motif within the runway show, belts and buckles adorned accessories as well as waists, imparting a smart and polished detail that also has connections to '90s accessories trends, which also featured lots of strap and buckle add ons.
An instant success on release, the bag has already attracted a number of high-profile wearers, including Lily James and Dua Lipa, and continues it reign and this season's It bag.
Simultaneously serious and playful, the belted bag trend has all of the hallmarks of a new cult-buy. Beyond Prada's iconic design, the trend has rippled into other high street and designer brands. Manu Atelier's Tote du Jour bag is a favourite amongst influencers, but I've also spotted compelling versions at Toteme, DeMellier and Bottega Veneta, too.
Expect to see a lot more of this emerging trend as we enter into the spring season this month. To get ahead of the curve, read on to discover our edit of the best buckle detail bags to shop now.
