We are interested in the accessories, especially the handbags, every fashion week.
The handbag is a powerful tool when it comes to what we wear. It can pull an outfit together or be the sole reason you make it through security. Past their fashion and function, handbags are becoming understood as investments, with accessories like the Chanel flap gaining double-digit percentages in value annually.
At shows and showrooms across New York City, Spring 2023 handbags have made their debut on the first leg of fashion month, and they’re gaudy and weird, but still very likable.
If you see someone carrying a baguette as a purse next April, we’ll tell you that it’s Dauphinette, and it’s cool. Beyond those that look like grub, there are clutches for your next disco party and totes for a stroll near the beach. The best handbags from New York Fashion Week can be found in the gallery.
