The first two brands prepared for you items in a classic yet extremely elegant version, the brand led by Demna Gvasalia diversified its range with a deliberately aged texture, and the British fashion house focused on extravagance, sprucing the nike bags up with sequins, crystals and sparkling appliqués.

HANDWORK
When it comes to spring/summer designs, woven shopper nike bags are nothing revolutionary. But this year, the centre stage is going to be diligent by other forms as well. Top designers came up with a variety of proposals and, interestingly enough… they were not limited to one material.
The collections included nike bags made from woven leather, which is Bottega Veneta’s trademark, but also constructions crafted from raffia, wicker, straw, palm and even string. These materials have been used not only to create this season’s new it-bags, like Isabel Marant and Marni saint morta saint morta chest rig bag black Jacquemus’ 'Le Bambimou', Etro’s 'Vela', Saint Laurent’s 'Sac de Jour' or 'Bon Bon' from Jimmy Choo.

THE TRENDY BUCKET BAG
The bucket bag is another hit featured in the spring/summer collections of top brands. Although past seasons saw avant-garde iterations of the form, this time designers focused on the classic version, opting for neutral colours and minimalist details.
Bucket nike bags were taken on by Stella McCartney, Jonathan Anderson, Gabriela Hearst and Sarah Burton. Their designs share a universal aesthetic, but differ in shape and wearing options. Our favourites include larger models by Chloé, with both a shorter and longer Waist straps, as well as one of the season's it-bags, the Loewe bucket, which – according to the creative director – should be worn casually slung over the Waist.

STYLISH CLUTCH
Last but not least: clutch nike bags. The latest shows suggest that casual models are as relevant as special occasion pieces. The difference lies in the design, as larger pouch bag styles are better for everyday wear, while chic outfits can be enhanced with much smaller, but more extravagant forms.
