Last night, I was winding down my evening with a scroll through Instagram, vaguely looking out for some style inspiration to take me into the new season on the front foot.
Gauzy layers, pastel tones and structured silhouettes all made it into my Saved folder, but the item that struck me the most? The Row's 90's Bag. Although this bag has been around for some time, the brand paused production after the pouch experienced a particularly poignant period of popularity (something my US colleague warns might happen with the brand's most-wanted Margaux tote). Driven to maintain the air of exclusivity, the covetable bag then became incredibly tricky to track down. But now it's back, and its quiet elegance is slipping into some of the most stylish wardrobes.
The Row's 90's Bag is a masterclass in restraint: a small and considered top-handle silhouette with a softly rounded finish, designed to carry just the essentials. Unlike other styles, it’s meant to be held in your clutches, nestled in the crook of your arm, or looped around your shoulder. Its slightly slouchy structure adds a relaxed, undone elegance—the kind only the Olsen twins could dream up.
Unsurprisingly, the bag is currently out of stock on The Row’s website, but I’ve tracked it down across different stockists. MyTheresa carries it in a rich cognac shade, Ssense stocks a classic black version and Selfridges has a striking red style that I can't believe is still available.
Effortlessly versatile, The Row's 90's Bag pairs just as seamlessly with a draped evening dress as with casual denim, instantly elevating a simple jeans-and-tee combination or lending polish to tailored trousers and skirts.
At £1020, the bag sits at the lower end of The Row's price points. Whilst not exactly affordable, it becomes more so when you compare it to some of the brand's other iconic bags. What's more, the sleek shoulder bag makes its case from a cost-per-wear angle, styling well with the neutral staples that make up a reliable capsule wardrobe, as well as the more vibrant pieces you save for special occasions.
As The Row continues to perfect the art of wardrobe-defining accessories, this one is undoubtedly next in line. Read on to discover the 90's Bag.
