With the end of summer on the horizon, my sights are already set on autumn and those all-important transitional pieces that help carry a capsule wardrobe into the next season. I’ve always found the easiest way to update an outfit is through the addition of a handbag. Whilst I’m still assembling my capsule wardrobe for the new season, I spotted something that stopped me mid-scroll today: Argentine-American actor and model Camila Morrone in a white, tiered, lace-insert prairie dress and cowboy boots, with a brown suede tote bag casually slung over her shoulder. It was this handbag addition that helped make her summer staples feel relevant for now and next season, and it's also what piqued my interest. Thankfully, that didn’t take long for me to track it down. Turns out, it's from Coach.
It’s no secret that Coach bags are a firm favourite amongst the style set. Founded in 1941, it's classed as a heritage brand, but it has been steadily climbing back into the fashion zeitgeist over the past few years. The re-release of the iconic Tabby bag (and its puffy sister, the Pillow Tabby) catapulted Coach back into the style spotlight in 2020, in a surge fuelled by a blend of nostalgia and, yes, the unstoppable power of TikTok.
Since then, Coach bags have continued their winning streak. Silhouettes like the Brooklyn shoulder bag (the very style Camila was carrying) and the Empire carryall have joined the ranks of some of the most iconic bags of the past few years. And it's not just fashion people who are embracing Coach bags in droves; celebrities like Jennifer Lopez, Selena Gomez and Bella Hadid have also been spotted carrying Coach bags of late.
Whilst any bag from the brand seems to hit the mark in terms of looking covetable and making everything it's worn with chicer by proxy, I predict that the suede iterations are really going to earn their keep next season. With trend-defying appeal and the ability to blend into a variety of style personalities from boho to minimalist, suede bags are as popular as ever.
And as we step into the seasonal shift, I know we'll start seeing suede arm candy begin to nudge out raffia and canvas, even from as early as next week. But don’t just take my word for it; the data backs me up. Searches for "Coach suede bags" are up 350% on Google Trends, proving there’s a clear appetite.
With so many popular Coach bags available in suede, I’ve found the 15 best suede Coach bags that will work hard in your wardrobe now and well into autumn. Scroll on to see them.
