In the world of celebrities, a bag can become an It bag with one singular paparazzi shot.
When we see trendsetters like Rihanna, Bella Hadid, or Kate Moss step out carrying a shiny new designer accessory (usually fresh off the runway, no less), it usually does not take long for said bag to become instantly covetable amongst fashion followers. This season alone, there have already been a number of noteworthy bags that have appeared on the arms of some A-listers.
Per celebs like Elle Fanning and A$AP Rocky, there is a variety of fresh options to inject your handbag wardrobe with a statement piece—whether you prefer enduring classics (the Louis Vuitton Speedy), re-edition styles (like the revived Veneta bag from 2002), or a brand new silhouette. Consider these the hot new It bags to know heading into the spring, should you happen to be looking to invest in a new bag. Or, you know, if you are trying to dress like the rich and famous.
Below, meet eight celebrity It bags that are trending this season.
Bottega Veneta’s Veneta bag
The Veneta bag is a woven leather shoulder style that recently appeared in Louise Trotter’s spring 2026 collection for Bottega Veneta (her first for the label). The style was actually originally introduced back in 2002, but has now been revived and updated in a variety of new colorways, and also comes in a new mini size. Jacob Elordi and Elle Fanning are both fans.

Louis Vuitton’s Speedy bag
A highly-coveted style since the 2000s, the monogrammed Louis Vuitton Speedy bag proves that some classics will simply never tire. Stars like Rihanna and Tyla have recently worn the smaller styles, and fully leaned into the signature Louis Vuitton print (Rihanna in the classic shades of brown, and Tyla in the multicolored version, made in collaboration with artist Takashi Murakami).
Valentino’s DeVain bag
A daintier offering: The Valentino DeVain bag was first introduced in Alessandro Michele’s fall 2025 collection for the label. The soft clutch silhouette comes in both solid or printed fabrications, and is finished with a thin little shoulder strap—for a more stealthy, discrete wear. Margot Robbie and Selena Gomez have both been spotted carrying it under their arms in the past month.
Chanel’s slouchy bags
The classic quilted Chanel flap may be the most iconic and well-known bag from the French fashion house, but current creative director Matthieu Blazy is cooking up some new hits. His slouchier, oversized leather bags—reminiscent of some of the house’s archival styles, like the Executive Tote—feels both modern and fresh. The silhouette brings a slightly more undone and effortless Chanel vibe. The shape has been worn by stars like Jennie and A$AP Rocky.
Saint Laurent’s Mombasa bag
First introduced back in 2002 during Saint Laurent’s Tom Ford era, the Mombasa bag has been an enduring hit since. In 2026, however, it has been refreshed and given a new life, thanks to designer Anthony Vaccarello. Rosé and Bella Hadid have both paired the slouchy oversized bag—roomy enough to fit all your daily essentials and more—with their best statement coats and bomber jackets.
Gucci’s Borsetto bag
The new slouchy, rectangular Borsetto bag from Gucci was recently introduced in the Italian label’s spring 2026 collection from designer Demna (his debut for the brand). The contemporary style comes with a horsebit detail, and a green-and-red racing stripe along the front—a signature for Gucci. You know a bag is bonafide hit when it has already been worn by supermodels like Kate Moss and Vittoria Ceretti.
Balenciaga’s Bolero bag
Sure, the Balenciaga City bag may have been all of the rage these past few years—but the sleeker, tinier Bolero bag is fast emerging as a new celebrity-favorite. The discrete rounded shape—inspired by an archival Cristóbal Balenciaga silhouette, introduced in 1937—comes with a subtle golden “B” clasp, ensuring it’s an investment style that will stand the test of time. Tate McRae and Cynthia Erivo have both worn it while out and about recently.
Versace’s Pivot bag
The Versace Pivot bucket bag debuted in the Italian brand’s spring 2026 collection from Dario Vitale. The style features the signature Medusa emblem displayed on the front and a convertible handle design that allows it to transition from a top-handle to shoulder-strap silhouette. Olivia Dean and Alex Consani have both recently worn it in a more casual, off-duty context.
