The Sparkly Handbag Trend That’s Perfect for Summer Nights
From rooftop parties to beach weddings, this accessory lights up the night.
If you’re like me, then you know summer is the perfect time to experiment with your style. The palpable energy of the season makes it easier to play with a dash of color here and a bit of sparkle there. And nothing catches the light (or compliments) quite like a sequin bag. Whether heading to rooftop drinks, destination weddings, or late-night gallery openings, this season’s crop of glittering handbags deliver just the right amount of glam.
Designers across the spectrum, from high-street favorites to luxury heavyweights, are giving the classic sequin treatment a fresh spin: think pouches dripping in fringe from It girl-approved brand Des Phemmes and chainmail-inspired minaudières by the iconic Rabanne team. This isn’t just about nostalgia or a Y2K revival. Today’s take on the sequin bag trends feels grown-up, thanks to sophisticated takes on Loewe’s Flamenco clutch and glittering designs on Bottega Veneta’s Cabat bucket.
Now’s the time to let your bag do the talking for you. Ahead, find the very best sequin-adorned styles to shimmer through the summer with.
