Happy National Handbag Day from the Yoogi’s Closet family!
We’re celebrating by counting down the most iconic designer handbags (in our humble opinion). When you close your eyes and think about the most famous handbags from each luxury house, that’s what this list is. Through our 10 years in business, we’ve seen a lot of bags come in and out of style… these are the bags that made a lasting impression on us and the designer handbag industry. This list features classics–bags that are always in our subconscious, that we always want and are always in style.
The Most Popular “It Bags” In Handbag History
While a trendy handbag is a nice indulgence, what you really should invest in are the classics: time-tested staples that will never go out of style and have a consistently increasing market value like a Chanel Classic Flap or an Hermes Birkin. There are new classics too: Chanel Boy bags, Balenciaga City, Céline Luggage totes, and the Givenchy Antigona bag. We also included some outliers that had an important impact on the handbag industry but may not be in style right now (like the Chloe Paddington bag). What all these bags have in common is that they are popular; even someone not interested in fashion or handbags may recognize a lot of these bags.
