With an obsession for the 2000s, the new generations are snapping up the It bags that their mothers used to fight over.
1 The City, Balenciaga
Master key
Balenciaga's great idea for 2024? Reviving the iconic City bag, designed by Nicolas Ghesquière in 2001 and adopted by Mary-Kate Olsen and Kate Moss (her again!). This redesigned bag is available in medium and small sizes in a variety of colors.
2 Paddington, Chloe
Endearing
The bag designed by Phoebe Philo in 2004, recognizable by its padlock, has seduced bohemian icons, including Kate Moss and Sienna Miller. For the fall/winter show, creative director Chemena Kamali has reimagined it, worn in the crook of the arm.
3 The Spy, Fendi
Protective
While its Baguette bag (1997) is often cited as the first it bag, the Italian fashion house is celebrating its famous Spy this season. Spotted on the catwalk, it is the star of a digital campaign, "Fendi Spy Bag Returns," starring Amelia Gray, Gabbriette, and Xiao Wen Ju.
4 The Saddle, Dior
Style
Renowned by Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City, the Saddle bag, with its undulating curves and D-ring, has been rising from the ashes for several seasons now. This fall, it's available in a clutch version, embellished with pearls, fringes, or chains.
5 The Folding, Longchamp
All-terrain:
The iconic nylon bag from the 2000s, practical and durable – launched in 1993! – is one of the most purchased bags on Vinted, particularly in pink, a color loved by Gen Z.
