30 Top Luxury Brand Handbags of All Time


 

Believe it or not, a designer is anything, whether it’s a bag, a couple of cute clothes, shoes, or anything! As long as it is designer it makes you feel some type of way. Makes you feel pampered, wealthy, one-in-a-million kind of girl. A bit shallow I know, but hey! You can’t blame a girl for wanting to have designers in her closet.

So anyway, when it comes to luxurious brand handbags, I have to say, you definitely should own some as a woman. Not because it’s a life or death situation, but because they have this superpower of automatically increasing your self-esteem. Kidding folks! Nothing has the ability to increase or decrease your self-esteem but yourself. Anyway, let’s have a look at some of the top luxury handbags of all time.

1. Prada

Ever heard the saying, “the devil wears Prada?” Could be whoever came up with this saying meant to allude to the fact that the devil can be quite deceitful and when he comes in Prada, he could easily fool you. Why? Because Prada just creams sophistication, wealth and classiness. It, therefore, isn’t a surprise that Prada tops our list.

With its very sleek appearance, it is no wonder fashion editors and influencers scream like excited little girls when they hear the name ‘Prada.

2. Gucci

Who doesn’t know Gucci? It is a household name that has made a name for itself hence being quite a big deal in the fashion industry. Although I find its colours (green and red) quite boring and unexciting, you cannot dispute the fact that Gucci is indeed fancy in its own way. With a Gucci bag, you definitely achieve an interesting and versatile look.

3. The Row

The beauty of this brand is how long-term it is. I mean, you know you can never go wrong with suede. It will serve you till the day you don’t wanna be served anymore. Thus this brown suede is quite ideal for updating your autumn wardrobe

4. JW Anderson

This very quality leather, paired with a chunky gold chain as its handles is the to go-to kind of handbag. One because of the good quality and two, because of how safe you will be with it, not having to worry that the straps are gonna break. I mean, with a chunky handle you’re quite safe girl.

5. Dolce & Gabbana

This one here is always a winner. It is very ladylike which fortunately can go with any dress. Be it casual, streetwear or even a cocktail dress. Pretty cool, huh?! It is also very perfect for carrying around in your everyday undertakings. At the end of the day, it’s not just a cute handbag but a practical one too.

6. Versace

Of course, this bad boy has to make the list. Versace is such a big deal in the fashion industry and their handbags are no exception. If you really want your outfit to scream pure elegance, try this with the handled leather bag. It has an attachable shoulder strap also so if you wanna pull out the chic/casual look this bag will do just that for you.

7. Louis Vuitton

I truly and absolutely love Louis Vuitton. Well, the ones I have are fake since the original one is quite pricy but hey! My heart just settles when I see that elegant logo on my bags. If you truly want to look glamorous, chic and just classy, Louis Vuitton’s beautiful Twist MM bag will do just that for you. Even more convenient for you, it comes in different colours. So you will be spoilt for choices at the end of the day.

8. Dior

Pop Smoke wasn’t winging it when he released that very popular song called, ‘Dior.’ The Dior brand is honestly quite a big deal. It just screams elegance and wealth. It is no wonder musicians mention it whenever they are alluding to what wealth and riches look like. A Dior handbag is quite simplistic in design but don’t be fooled. It is very expensive and long-term. It roughly goes for 2,000 pounds so yeah, it is not as affordable as its exterior may fool you into believing.

9. Chanel

This Chanel bag is truly a masterpiece. It is a true investment for anyone who can afford it and honestly, I don’t see it ever going out of style. It is so versatile and flexible that it fits to be carried around any time of the day. Whether you have brunch or dinner plans, this elegant handbag will suit your needs.

10. Saint Laurent

This small and efficient bag from YSL is surely a treasure and should be treated as so. It is not elegant but also quite light, small and chic all at the same time. It also has shoulder straps thus proving to be the kind of bag that serves you well and doesn’t tire you. In fact, you can easily forget you’re carrying a bag with this one. It is perfect for clubbing and girls’ day out.

11. Marni

This is another designer handbag that is not only fashionable but also chic and efficient. With its statement logo canvas strap, you can be sure this one is not a weakling. I love its colour combo. The cream and navy blue straps are just it. Although limiting when it comes to the outfit that will best accompany it, you still cannot deny that this handbag is quite cute.

12. Hermès

Honestly this brand doesn’t even need an introduction. I mean, it goes for roughly 11,000 pounds. With that kind of money, I can easily mortgage a house in my country and so it goes to say this one’s not for the broke folks. Let’s just call a spade a spade okay?!

With that said, Hermes is one of the most famous handbags of all time and it is also not easy to come by. It’s a rare one. Thus when it rears it head in the market, the rich and able are usually the first to scoop it.

13. Loewe

The Loewe handbag comes in different and a variety of sizes and colours. Its sizes include small, medium and big and its textured design is typically in the sand. It is quite a lovely addition to your wardrobe because it is not only chic and beautiful but also very classy and elegant. It has both straps and handles thus whatever works for you, Loewe got you covered.

14. Celine

The Celine brand is actually a favourite for any woman interested in chic accessories. Made with the most luxurious materials, this amazing bag is just the ‘it’ bag! It is available in a variety of colours, including navy and tan and believe me when I say, it can go with any of your outfits. The beauty of Celine is that whatever you are wearing, it has the ability to spice it up.

15. Givenchy

If you wish to keep it sleek, simple and outright elegant, a Givenchy handbag will absolutely grant your wish. What I love about this bag is how efficient and adjustable it is. I mean, given how it has a removable and adjustable shoulder strap, it literally gives you so many options. With Givenchy, you are spoilt for options as it gives you multiple ways how to wear it.

16. Alexander McQueen

Hands down the Alexander Mcqueen handbag is one of the cutest and chicest handbag to ever be made. It is a style that will surely stick around for long because it is unique and rare. This accessory which features a harness silhouette, can be worn either as a crossbody or an on-shoulder by simply adjusting the length of its straps. Additionally, the cylindrical and round shape it has creates room for you to carry so many essentials and still look trendy instead of too crowded.

17. Balenciaga

I know, I know! Ever since the huge scandal following their very controversial ad campaigns, many people, if not every single person, swore to write this brand off. However, we cannot deny their handbags are to die for. This hourglass bag with a sculptural silhouette gives it a very chic and modern look. With both straps and handles, it is also an efficient one as you can choose either and still be able to rock it.

18. Bottega Veneta

Going for about 2,000 Pounds, The Bottega Veneta is another very beautiful design. More of a cassette bag, it has become a favourite to many fashion enthusiasts. Its bright orange signature colour adds to its uniqueness. I know! Quite limiting with outfits but you’d be surprised how well it can pull off with any given outfit regardless of its colour.

19. Chloe

The Chloe handbag is typically a small bag with very soft leather. I guess that is one of its many perks. Its signature sculptural gold hardware gives a very elegant and chic look. It is honestly a simple bag but that is what makes it extremely beautiful and your to- go-to bag for whatever activity you have in mind. Be it dinner, brunch, a day’s out, or whatever you have in mind.

21. APC

Going at about 700 pounds, the APC handbag brand is actually the most affordable among all these designer bags we’ve talked about so far. That could be why it is a popular one. Shaped like a half-moon, this bad boy is actually quite graceful and a perfect one for your day-to-day use. So if you’re looking for an affordable yet chic and designer bag, this is it sis! APC will definitely be the bag for you.

22. Fendi

Fendi’s best handbag known as Baguette is honestly a favourite of mine (well, another favourite of mine). Its curved shape is what sells me every time I take a look at it. If you are into unique, rare and at the same time cute handbags, then Fendi will absolutely impress you. With both a long and short strap, she never disappoints. You can adjust the straps to your satisfaction and also manage to wear it either as a crossbody or by tucking it under your arm. Meaning you can wear it to dinner by tucking it under your arm or for a casual look when using the straps. Moreover, as a black leather bag, you can be sure it will serve you for quite a long time and the tortoiseshell hardware simply sets it apart and makes it even more interesting. Intrigued? I hope you are.

23. Jil Sander

Its chic, box-style design can work for anything. Whether it’s for work or for a weekend out, it won’t disappoint. It also has adjustable straps hence also a practical bag.

Whatever you choose and makes you comfortable, this beauty gotcha! It also comes in so many colours so do not fret!

Its compact size can spice up any workwear look and so you don’t have to kill yourself with oversized handbags when stepping into the office.

Moreover, it is also quite affordable compared to the rest at 700 pounds and its silver straps give it quite a chic look.

28. Balmain

This design as designed by Olivier Rousteing is quite interesting. Inspired by the 1945 style of bags, Balmain manages to bring a bit of the old school glamour and you know what they say. Old is gold. It doesn’t disappoint. The chic and old-school style is what makes it outstanding.
