While bucket bags tend to crop up from season to season, for Spring Summer 2020, they’ve arrived in by the (ahem) bucket load, making them the hottest handbag shape to sling off your shoulder.
Apart from the few key signifiers of a bucket (cylinder-shaped structure and interiors cavernous enough to maintain their shape regardless of how much you tote inside), styles vary widely. From an embellished rock ‘n’ roll creation from Miu Miu, a classic-in-the-making nylon version from Prada and a hatbox-esque version complete with oversized strap from Stella McCartney, shopping for a bucket bag this season feels like standing in front of a sweet shop’s pick and mix.
Who’s treating themselves?
