From Beach to City: Everyone's Carrying Raffia Bags this Season
Raffia bags are lighter and more ornate, the perfect accompaniment for beach days or street styles.
And it seems that we have another classic - this time beachy - back in the hall of trends for 2022. The raffia bag, better known as the beach bag, left the sun and sea to shine through the streets of the city. Despite the seasons being one of the defining points when choosing what to wear, the use of accessories is more versatile, and nothing better than a lighter and airy bag.
With a handcrafted look and natural fibre weaves, the raffia bag is the model that everyone is using now. More ornate and decorated, the model contrasts with the chosen look, sometimes in a more beachy style, sometimes in street style. The materials used to make the bag also reveal an interesting movement towards sustainable consumption in fashion.
Either way, the raffia bag is back. Versatile and full of personality, the model can be combined with basic looks, such as jeans and t-shirts, as well as with designer pieces. Prada has been betting on the bag since 2020. The rectangular-style model with a classic print and logo of the brand is the brand's darling and best-known. The lightweight and sometimes transparent bag is also suitable for different environments.
There are also wooden raffia bags, with a more ladylike feel. When choosing your model, opt for lively tones and a more structured finish. To complement the look, use creativity and dive into the street style universe with a look full of personality, and fresh, light and refreshing bags.
