If 2021 saw the peak of the puffed-up purse, 2022 arrived with fringe bags in tow. The kinetic handbag style has been feathering across runways—from Chloé’s Resort 2022 show to Dries Van Noten’s Spring 2022 collection. Designers seemed to be in unison, each delivering their takes on leather, suede, raffia, and yarn fringed handbags.
Adding texture to classic silhouettes, these bags bring dimension to any outfit. Pair a sleek Maje number with a classic black miniskirt or Ulla Johnson’s raffia with a toile midi dress. Beyond earthy materials, designers have also experimented with dyes and fringe sizes. The results are crafted with autumnal hues and textures perfect for the upcoming season. Whether it’s Gabriela Hearst’s netted fringe or Petit Kouraj’s caramel take, there are several standout options as the seasons change. Simply opt for a fringe bag that feels more suited for a trip to the office than it does for the beach. Below, 18 fringe bags that will offer a stylish transition from summer to fall.
The amalgamation of textures does not disappoint in this Dries Van Noten shoulder bag. A braided top handle crescents over a yellow cotton surface, which is curtained by maple-colored leather fringe. The leather strap adds to the functionality of this day-to-night style.
