The bag in 2025 remains an important element of style, which can both complement an outfit and serve as its focal point. This year, several key models and trends are emerging on the runways and in fashion collections that will remain relevant.
Bags that are at the peak of popularity and how to pair them according to a post on Instagram by Ukrainian stylist Olena Shevchenko.
"A bag is not just an accessory. What’s in your bag? A phone, cosmetics, a book, or half of your home? In any case, if you want to refresh your wardrobe, I suggest checking out the main models of 2025 that have already conquered the world’s runways," says the post.
Trendy bags of 2025
Rectangular bag
"This model is a true ode to elegance and practicality. It resembles the classic doctor’s bags from the past (the Doctor Holland model) but with a modern and very stylish twist. Its rigid form, high-quality leather, and minimalist design with a focus on details are what make it perfect for business outfits," noted Shevchenko.
For example, the Arcadie rectangular bag by Miu Miu is an elegant and refined accessory that blends classic style with contemporary fashion trends.

Soft oversized clutches
These are a true must-have for 2025. Forget about tiny clutches that are hard to consider practical.
"The new clutches are large, soft, and comfortable 'clouds' that are perfect for both evening outings and everyday walks. Valentino and Chanel showcased them in all their beauty at their shows," noted stylist Olena Shevchenko.
