Shop ELLE’s edit ahead of the fall season.
In terms of purse trends for fall, woven leather bags are set to have a major moment. Actually, the moment has already begun, for that matter. The right one is more than fashion statement, it’s an investment piece that can take any ensemble from casual to chic. So, I’m rounding up the best options to shop now.
My selection criteria was meticulous: I prioritized craftsmanship, material quality, design, and brand reputation.
