We may have to wait a while before we can don the clothes of Spring/Summer 2022 (or risk freezing – winter has just begun, after all), but there is one piece from the runway that we can immediately add to our wardrobe: Handbags. Handbags are great for impatient types and the easiest way to start the new season. And since bags were at the bottom of our shopping priority list at the beginning of 2021 due to the pandemic and the amount of time we spend indoors, now is the right time to make up for lost time.
Luckily for the impatient, we’ve discovered that many of the top handbag trends we’ve seen on the runway are already in stores. What are these trends, you may ask? Well, they are very versatile.
The texture is still an important part of the accessory aesthetic, although the borg and shearling fabrics we’ll see this winter will morph into basket weaves and crochet. Still, you can wear your party bags well into next year, as fancy finishes like rhinestones and fringe are still all the rage. After all, what’s life without a little glitter?

For the minimalists among you, there’s a whole range of arm jewelry options – for example, the classic shades that blend seamlessly into your simple wardrobe. And then there’s spring’s chicest bag silhouette. Want to know which one it is? Keep scrolling to see the eight handbag trends of 2022.
1- LOGO-A-GO-GO
Style notes: For spring, you don’t have to be subtle about where your bag comes from. On the runway, heavily logoed arm candy prevailed, with monograms repeated over and over at Loewe and Fendi, and eye-catching lettering at Chanel. As the saying goes, “If you’ve got it, flaunt it.”
2- TONAL TAN
Style Notes: Normally we wouldn’t call something as classic as a tan bag “trendy,” but since it was seen so often on the runway, it has to make our list. Chloé chose this hue and combined it with other buttery tones for a sophisticated look.
3- RUCHE
Style Notes: Whether pleated or puffed, padded bags have been at the top of the style agenda since early 2021, and they will stay with us in 2022. The trend was first seen in the 1980s, but if the runways are to be believed, they will continue to have a strong influence on our future. Bottega Veneta continues to show ruffle bracelets for Spring/Summer 2022, and Balmain also joins in.
4- WHIP(STITCH) IT
Style Notes: It’s true—sometimes the smallest details can make the biggest difference, and that’s the case with this handbag trend. Chloé, Elleme, and Altuzarra are just a handful of brands that have brought this artisanal method back for 2022. Look for contrasting stitching to make more of an impact.
5- FILL A BUCKET
Style Notes: Perhaps the most eye-catching silhouette on the spring/summer runway was the bucket bag. Designers like Michael Kors opted to keep their bags structured and not baggy. This formal-looking shape, but the spacious interior make it the perfect bag for transitioning from day to evening.
6- PARTY BAGS
Style notes: If you’re one of the many (many) people who invested in a chic bag in 2021, you’ll be happy to hear that it will be just as relevant in 2022. Follow the runway mantra of not saving the best for the best, and use embellished and metallic bags to elevate your simple jeans-and-blazer look.
7- FULL-ON FRINGING
Style Notes: Now that fringes have had a revival of sorts in the form of clothing, we’re not surprised to see them pop up in the hottest bags of 2022. Look for bags with fringes on all sides to take full advantage of the aesthetic, or if that’s too much for you, look for styles with asymmetrical fringes.
8- SUMMER TOTES
Style Notes: One of the quickest ways to take your look from one season to the next is to switch up the textures. Woven bags return every spring/summer, and 2022 is no exception. Again, Chloé has led the way with its macramé-style jumbo handbag. Although it is not yet on the market, there are many other models that will pique your interest
