Sometimes it feels like fresh handbags are hitting the market every single day. Just moments after you swipe your card for a new going-out bag, a casual scroll through Instagram may reveal another contender. Every time Bella Hadid steps out on the town, or Dua Lipa posts a new photo, they have a new covetable carry-all by their side. It’s downright overwhelming, but it’s not surprising. Accessories have long been a major seller for luxury brands, and there’s an incentive to release new and updated pieces. Are we to blame for wanting them all?

The situation has gotten even bigger thanks to the constant designer debuts. It seems that whenever someone takes the helm at a brand, they’re expected to couple their first collection with a new bag. The spring 2026 season brought with it many inaugural collections from new creative directors—and now, we’re reaping the benefits. Since the beginning of the year, many bags have become available, and they’re already in the closets of fashion’s most influential faces. Yes, you can collect them all, but if you’re attempting to be more selective (and save a few bucks), see below for a breakdown of the year’s It bags, so you can determine which one (or two...or three) will be right for you.

Gucci Borsetto

The Gucci Borsetto is one of those handbags you know about before it even launches, because you see it on the arms of all your favorite It girls. Prior to becoming available to the public earlier this year, the accessory was already seen held by Alex Consani and Vittoria Ceretti. Since then, Demi Moore, Kate Moss, and Dua Lipa have given the design their expert seal of approval too (with Moss also starring in the bag’s campaign).

The name Borsetto comes from an amalgamation of borsa (Italian for “bag”) and morsetto (Italian for “horse bit”). Of course, the piece features Gucci’s iconic horse bit, placed on the front of the bag atop the house’s two-tone stripe. With an elongated zipper and detachable strap, the Borsetto allows for versatility; an array of colors offers a more subtle look—black leather, brown suede—or something a bit more flashy with the classic GG monogram.

Bottega Veneta Veneta

Jacob Elordi has one of the best bag collections out there, and if he cosigns a design, it’s worth a second look. Of course, Elordi is a Bottega boy, so it’s no surprise the actor was one of the first to get his hands on the brand’s newest Veneta bag. The Veneta was first created in the ’70s by Bottega cofounder Renzo Zengiaro before being reintroduced under its current name in 2002. Last year, as part of spring 2026—Louise Trotter’s first with the brand—the Veneta was reimagined in four new sizes. The updated Veneta also features leather strips of 1.2cm width, padded out with a soft interior filler, allowing for a more cushioned feel. It has already proven to be a favorite of Julianne Moore, Olivia Dean, and Elle Fanning.

Loewe Amazona 180

No, this isn’t just a list of Kate Moss’s favorite bags (we already did that). It’s just that the model is always on the cutting edge of accessories. That’s why it’s no surprise she was one of the first to get her hands on the new Loewe bag, one of the many spring 2026 designs that fall under the “Pickpocket Bags” category. When the Amazona 180 first appeared at Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez’s debut show for the house, it was presented unzipped. And while you may have thought that was just a styling technique, here Moss is, proving the look can be taken to the streets (with caution).

Of course, the zipper does work, so those afraid of losing their phone need not fear—and the style also fits under the shoulder for extra protection. The Amazona 180 (named for Loewe’s 180th anniversary) also features a removable crossbody strap and comes in a variety of colors, as well as three sizes. Moss opted for the large in black leather, but the mini in blue makes for a perfect, bright addition of color to any outfit.

Versace Pivot

Versace is championing the continuing domination of the bucket bag, a silhouette that has often been ignored by luxury brands despite its extreme popularity on the street. Straight from Dario Vitale’s debut (and only Versace show), the Pivot Bag leapt off the runway and onto the arms of Alex Consani, Chloë Sevigny, and Amanda Seyfried. It brings some color to this lineup, with offerings in cobalt blue and aquamarine suede. But those looking for something subtler will also be drawn to the black, camel, or chocolate brown leather. And, of course, upon the front lies the classic Versace Medusa emblem—lest anyone mistake the bag for another brand. It is flanked by a chain that swoops from the lip to the side strap for an extra flourish that feels quintessentially Versace.

Chanel Maxi Flapbag

The most elusive of this new crop of bags is undoubtedly Matthieu Blazy’s ludicrously capacious take on Chanel’s classic Flap. After debuting on the runway during the spring 2026 season (Blazy’s first with the brand), the collection released to much fanfare in March. Everyone wanted to get the bag, but most walked away empty-handed—adding, of course, to the appeal. It also helps, of course, that the purse is equal parts chic and practical, with its large size allowing for use as a work or travel bag. And while the layman may continue to struggle to add the Maxi Flapbag to their closet, Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner, Jennie, and even Harry Styles have been taunting us, flaunting their own acquisitions on the street.

Valentino Garavani Devain

Many of the bags on this list fall squarely in the “everyday” category, but with its latest offering, Valentino is suggesting an accessory for evening. First presented in the pre-fall 2025 collection, the Devain has been seen on everyone. And we mean everyone: Sabrina Carpenter, Dakota Johnson, Olivia Rodrigo, Hailey Bieber, Selena Gomez, Bella Hadid, Margot Robbie...the list goes on. That’s likely due to the versatility: the accessory comes in a wide swath of colors, fabrics, and embellishments, allowing one to mix and match, working the Devain into their existing wardrobe. There’s a denim version embroidered with flowers, a metallic blue one covered in sequins and beads, a completely crocheted option—and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. The many iterations make the bag feel customizable. And as an added bonus, the variety decreases the chance of you carrying the same bag as your best friend on a night out.

It feels like we’ve been talking about The Devil Wears Prada 2 for eons. Ever since those first paparazzi shots from set appeared online last summer, the chatter has been non-stop. Now, for the past month, the stars of the film have been on a seemingly never-ending press tour, traveling from country to country for premieres, press conferences, and photo ops, with every stop turning into a headline-making moment.

That’s, of course, thanks in part to the stars’ rotating wardrobe. Wherever Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep, and Emily Blunt go, there’s no question that an array of luggage follows. Every time we see one of the film’s main trio, they’re in another custom or right-of-the-runway ensemble. In fact, the other night, at the European premiere, the threesome all engaged in an unexpected outfit change, each debuting not one, but two show-stopping looks within the same evening. It’s enough to exhaust even the most ardent fashion or pop culture fan, so do not feel bad if you’re struggling to keep up. We all have jobs, kids, and lives to attend to; we don’t have time to keep track of this never-ending sartorial parade. Still, though, there are some notable moments in there (Streep, specifically, has been turning out some must-see outfits). So, to make sure you don’t miss even one, we’re rounding up all the looks from the DWP2 press tour. That’s all.

After an array of premieres, Anne Hathaway stepped into a slightly more comfortable look as she continued to promote the The Devil Wears Prada sequel in London. The actor wore a gray knit set featuring a peplum top hemmed in fur from Stella McCartney fall/winter 2026. She paired the ensemble with suede maroon So Kate pumps from Christian Louboutin and Bulgari sunglasses.

The real star of Streep’s European premiere look is the custom Judith Leiber Runway clutch, which she wore with her sophisticated satin Prada ensemble.

Hathaway was joined by Donatella Versace at the European premiere, which was appropriate considering the actor wore a midnight blue, velvet Atelier Versace dress featuring a nude illusion corset and Medusa buttons down the front.

The trio was completed by Blunt, who, like Streep, wore pants to the European premiere, albeit with an overskirt. The ensemble was courtesy of Balenciaga spring 2026.

Following the premiere, the women attended “A Night With Runway” gala reception, for which a wardrobe change was necessary. Streep broke the unspoken black, white, and red dress code for the evening, but it was worth it given the high glamour of this sequin-covered Richard Quinn fall 2023 coat.

Hathaway, meanwhile, changed into a custom striped Louis Vuitton gown featuring a layered skirt, which she paired with Bulgari jewelry.

Freeing her legs, Blunt arrived to the second event in a lace mini dress from Dior spring/summer 2026 couture, which she wore with Jimmy Choo platform heels.

The red looks continued at the New York premiere, where Streep showed up in an Andre Leon Talley-adjacent cape dress from Givenchy by Sarah Burton fall 2026.

Hathaway matched her costar in another custom Louis Vuitton dress. This one boasted a silk bustier corset top and exaggerated tea-length skirt.

Blunt broke up the sea of red by attending the New York premiere in an extremely dramatic look from Schiaparelli spring 2026 haute couture.

Later, she got more comfortable and changed into a Balmain fall 2026 top and skirt to attend the premiere after party with her husband, John Krasinski.

I think we can all agree that this Gucci fur coat was basically made to be worn by Streep.

Suiting has been a staple for Streep throughout this press tour. She headed to the SiriusXM studio on April 20 in a black tailored Celine look featuring not one, not two, but four belts, and Bared Footwear boots.

Another NYC outing called for a Dolce & Gabbana maroon patent leather trench, which Streep threw over a Gabriela Hearst dress and finished off with a suede Manu Atelier bag.

Hathaway promoted the sequel on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert in a Versace fall 1991 black mini dress, originally worn by Naomi Campbell on the runway.

Is that Meryl or Miranda? It’s honestly hard to tell. We could totally see the Runway boss in this Saint Laurent fall 2025 satin coat dress.

Hathaway went in a slightly more demure direction to promote DWP2 in Shanghai. The actor wore a tulle-covered Susan Fang fall 2026 dress, quite the contrast to Streep’s look.

If there’s a red suit out there, someone from the DWP2 cast nabbed it for the press tour. Here, we see Streep in a Prada double-breasted jacket with wide-leg pants for a press conference in Seoul.

Clearly, volume is one of the themes of this press tour, and Hathaway hit the brief when she attended a press conference for the film in Seoul wearing this Vaquera spring 2026 look.

The Seoul premiere of DWP2 called for an all-black Celine look featuring high-waisted pants, a draped top, and a leather belt to pull it all together.

Hathaway first got into the red theme in Seoul, when she wore a leather Balenciaga fall 2026 set to one of the movie’s first premieres.

Some of Streep’s best looks this press tour haven’t even been on the red carpet. Here, we see the actor en route to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert wearing a leopard print Givenchy by Sarah Burton pre-fall 2026 pussy bow coat, accessorized with The Hudson bag from DeMellier.

The two DWP2 stars attended a Mexico Fashion Week event in contrasting looks. Streep wore a dark blue Schiaparelli shirt dress while Hathaway opted for a Stella McCartney fall 2026 sequined mini with the same thigh-high boots from the runway.

Hathaway and Streep kicked off the press tour in Mexico back in March. Hathaway wore Schiaparelli fall 2025 to the first event, while Streep set the red precedent in a custom Dolce & Gabbana suit.
