Versatility at its core
Known for its multi-carry capabilities, the Loewe Hammock has become the brand’s signature. Its key defining feature is the winged, extended sides and a top handle designed to be carried as is or hung at the crook of the forearm. This season’s iteration is constructed in satin leather and known as the Hammock Compact — sized in between the small and the mini Hammock. The new form updates the bag’s shape-shifting ability. The sides can be further folded in to form a more compact shape when less space is required.
Sprayed seduction
Prada’s latest Supernova bag stands out among its peers. The distinctive trapezoid shape is contrasted with a curved top handle — a classic Prada design trope that leans heavily on juxtaposing contrasting elements together — and then topped off with hand-sprayed pigments along the seams. Immediately, they appear like shadows or a leather patina that adds extra depth and dimension while at the same time, highlighting the bag’s stark lines. The Prada Supernova is crafted from the brand’s signature, sturdy spazzolato leather and further detailed with enamelled Prada triangle emblems at each end of the bag’s external zipper.
All locked up
Givenchy interprets the classic hobo with the G-Hobo for autumn/winter 2022. Available in both grained leather and python, the G-Hobo is lined in suede and features the distinctive G-Lock that has become a signature of creative director Matthew M. Williams’ creations for the house. Don’t be fooled by the suppleness of the leather; the construction is sturdy and holds its shape with the V-cut dip providing ample room to glide easily over the shoulder.
