If there’s one trend that has emerged as the it-girl staple across runways and city streets alike this summer, it’s the white bag. Taking over from classic black and bold reds, white bags—especially in smooth leather—have become the season’s ultimate accessory, championed by designers everywhere.

The clean slate appeal

What makes the white bag so irresistible? It’s the epitome of clean lines, essential minimalism, and sheer versatility. White is a color that promises freshness and sophistication. A white bag, especially in smooth, buttery leather, effortlessly conveys a sense of purity and elegance. It’s a style chameleon: perfectly at home at a rooftop brunch, an office meeting, or a chic garden soirée.

A white handbag acts as a sartorial palette cleanser after years of saturated jewel tones and complex prints. It’s minimalist, understated—but never boring—and instantly elevates any look by adding a crisp, modern edge.

Styling tips: white bags with everything

1. The total white-out
For those daring enough, an all-white ensemble paired with a structured white tote or mini bag channels runway-worthy elegance. Go monochrome with wide-legged white jeans, a white linen blazer, and a pristine white bag. This look exudes confidence and makes everyday luxury feel effortless.

2. White and denim
The magic of a white bag is its chameleon power: it looks just as high fashion thrown over a pair of classic jeans and a tee as it does at a garden party. Try a crisp white shirt, relaxed blue jeans, and a white crossbody for a casual yet polished vibe. This pairing creates balance—the ease of denim with the sophistication of an alabaster accessory.

3. White with prints and colors
Don’t hesitate to let your white handbag anchor bold florals, color-blocked outfits, or pastel staples. White acts as a neutral, blending seamlessly with virtually every shade in your closet, and providing a backdrop that lets the rest of your look shine. From shirt dresses to sequin skirts, it’s the touch that pulls an ensemble together.

Why white is so classy

A white bag, particularly in smooth leather, speaks to both timelessness and the new wave of minimalism. It’s not just clean—it’s essential: the finishing detail that gives every look a sense of purpose and poise. Its minimalistic color and supple material bring out the best of any cut or silhouette, ensuring each outfit looks intentional and polished.

The only caveat? A white bag demands care. But that’s part of its allure: high-maintenance equals high-impact style, and the investment pays off season after season with endless wearability and unyielding class.

Let summer 2025 be the season your wardrobe glows—white handbags are not only on trend, they’re already iconic.

The Maison’s heritage shifts into holiday mode; classic and new creations capture a fresh approach to destination dressing and living. A relaxed wardrobe adapted for seaside and city, the collection also comprises a wide range of Louis Vuitton’s métiers such as ready-to-wear, bags, silks, shoes, sunglasses, jewellery and accessories – all suited to getaways near and far.

Imagine strolling the streets of Lisbon, daydreaming by the side of a pool or feeling the warmth of sand underfoot: not a single point of departure, but several. These play out primarily through various animations of the Monogram, each with a summery look and an artistic spirit. The mosaic pattern that appears throughout – from a watercolour effect on swimwear and silk squares to graphic arrangements on beach towels and pillows – draws inspiration from Portuguese Azulejos tiles in tones of blue that also evoke open skies and ocean depths.

Ready-to-wear leans towards casual sophistication – at once travel-friendly and versatile. Crochet pieces lightly skim the body with instant allure, while knit layers express carefree ease and pair with swimwear.

Highlighting the tiled Monogram, jersey pieces are light and feminine, just as skirts, shorts and dresses span a range of silhouettes. Looks in black and white remain a timeless expression of dressed-down elegance. Cover-ups including caftans and pareos are essential for vacations, whereas additional outerwear and separates bridge the season no matter how the days are spent.

A selection of the Maison’s signature bags – Speedy, Keepall, Métis and NéoNoé – interpret the enlarged Monogram animation, which is contrasted with trim in the mosaic pattern. On a cream base of coated canvas, shades of blue, rose and beige bring novelty to the Maison’s iconic motif. A new raffia-like material enhanced with Monogram embroidery, crafted from natural cotton, offers a supple texture for bags, shoes and accessories. High-end models are also adorned with summery details: Twist is crafted from a crochet material showcasing a colourful flower pattern while Capucines is revisited in an elevated natural rattan and an enchanting tweed. Coussin is embellished with a delicate braided silk scarf on the chain.

For a complete look, LV By The Pool includes shoe styles that capture the essence of getaway chic. The LV Isola mule arrives as a new icon – recognisable for its crafted LV circle up top and the tile motif around the sole. Meanwhile Starboard platform sandals and slip-ons stand out for their mix of natural cotton, embroidery and espadrille soles. Hats span classic to novelty, whether a leather sandal or the LV Croisière crochet bucket hat with eye-catching embroidery.
A range of striking sunglasses boast timeless shapes in seasonal shades of pink and blue.

Beyond being highly wearable, the collection also speaks to the Louis Vuitton way of life. A Monogram print hammock, folding chair and beach racquet set are among the items elevating leisure time, while a new tablewear range in Porcelaine de Limoges underscores a respect for fine craftmanship. As a 360-degree offer, the collection transcends holiday time, furthering the pleasures of travel while making a veritable, visual splash.

At once interpretations and celebrations of the Baguette in this 25th Anniversary year, the collections of Kim Jones and Silvia Venturini Fendi at Fendi, Marc Jacobs, Tiffany & Co, Sarah Jessica Parker and Porter pay tribute to the bag and the city in which its place in pop culture history was sealed – New York.

Taking inspiration from the object itself, a moment in time, as well as the spirit and geography of place, the Baguette is realised in a multiplicity of ways, both in terms of clothing and accessories, reflecting the maker as much as the iconic item, while never neglecting the enjoyment and sense of celebration for the wearer.

In this rough-cut romance between uptown and downtown, luxury and utility, excess and reality, the Baguette and the clothing and accessories it inspires are at once defined as a moment in history and part of a continuum with today.

For Fendi, the essential utility of the bag becomes a multi-pocketed motif, migrating throughout the collection. The unmistakable Baguette dimensions made mini and micro pockets, appearing on parkas to gaiters, roving all over the body, covering gloves, hats, skirts, sweaters and, of course, the bag itself in one of its new iterations. In contrast and cohesion, a sense of hyper-luxe and glossy glamour pervades the collection – the Baguette is not entirely utilitarian after all.

Those gaiters are made from silk satin, that parka shaved mink or glossy leather; a stratification of sequins and biased cut silks are often layered beneath, adding a shimmer of art deco allure.For Marc Jacobs, grand dimensions from another time are contrasted with the humble origins of today and in so doing banish notions of costume in his collection. A reflection of the glittering and gritty New York cityscape the casual is made formal in parachute train skirts, balloon-backed broken denim jackets, rustling cellophane opera capes and fluro recycled fur stoles and hats. The glitter of rhinestones, silver, and fluro yellow pervades, becoming an almost literal example of ‘local colour’; inspired by the glass frontages and workman’s safety vests to be found on the city’s streets.

Exaggerated, platformed and oversized, the take on the Baguette itself also shares something of these silhouettes’ grand gestures – elongated and gleaming, replete with multiple mini versions of itself attached.

‘Fendi at Tiffany’s’ might be the name for the meeting of these two grand edifices. Here, the storied New York institution takes on the Baguette and reimagines it in its most precious of forms, through its use of sterling silver, enamel, croco, white gold and diamonds. The T and the F complement each other in logo white gold fastenings, encrusted in diamonds while shining crocodile takes on the hue of Tiffany Blue – a colour which also irresistibly permeates the Fendi clothing palette. Perhaps most startling of all is an unprecedented Baguette made entirely of stippled sterling silver. Crafted by hand over a period of four months by the Tiffany artisans, the bag is engraved with lilies and roses – the national flower of Italy and New York State, respectively. It is also the first of Fendi’s ‘Hand in Hand’ partnerships to come from outside Italy and is a measure of Tiffany & Co’s superlative craftsmanship.

“It’s not a bag, it’s a Baguette,” declared Sarah Jessica Parker in Sex and the City and the pop apotheosis of the Baguette was complete. It is a statement that is also inscribed inside each of SJP’s capsule bags, or rather Baguettes. Designed alongside SVF (that’s Silvia Venturini Fendi), embroidered in degradé sequins with a palette of purple, wasabi, baby pink or soft blue, the bags feature four interchangeable buckles to suit the wearer’s mood.

In contrast, the supreme utility of the Japanese luggage brand Porter, gives the Baguette a decidedly masculine bent. Known for their hard-wearing bonded nylon – that nevertheless exudes beauty and luxury – together with precision Japanese craftsmanship, here lightness and functionality are key. The Porter collection is also a proponent of one of the Baguette’s latest incarnations: the Bum Baguette.

Fascinated by a Mark Shaw photograph of Christian Dior in his winter garden, Maria Grazia Chiuri created a delicate pattern depicting plants, flowers and birds.

Created with a palette of over twenty different colors, this mesmerizing illustration is meticulously embroidered on the iconic Dior Book Tote, crafted in Italy by virtuoso artisans. They assemble the different parts of the bag by hand, giving life to an exceptional piece, a symbol of the Dior spirit, an ode to the art of detail.
