Bucket bags are back in the limelight for winter 2024-2025, confirming themselves as one of the must-have accessories of the season. Versatile and chic style companions, these bags lend themselves to countless combinations, bringing a touch of elegance and modernity to even the most basic outfits.
Trends offer us classic, XXL-sized models ranging from rigid, cylindrical versions to softer, drawstring-enclosed ones. The predominant colours are the traditional black and brown, flanked by pastel tones and shades of beige, green, mustard and burgundy. So, let’s see how best to wear the bucket bag this winter.
Bucket bag, how to match this 1930s piece
The bucket bag has a fascinating history that has its roots in the 1930s. It was invented by Louis Vuitton, who created a version designed to carry champagne bottles. Since then, other luxury brands, such as Loewe, have also reproposed the bucket bag in their collections: you can find many models of women’s Loewe bag on TheDoubleF.
During the 1990s era of fashion trends saw the bucket bag rise to prominence as an accessory, for womens fashion ensembles; a piece that complements a variety of outfits flawlessly.
Casual-chic look for daytime
For an adaptable daytime outfit idea; consider combining a toned bucket bag with either straight leg jeans or corduroys.
You could opt for a sweater or a cozy turtleneck paired with a coat and chunky white sneakers instead.
Timeless elegance for the office
Even at the office, the bucket bag can prove to be an excellent ally. In this case, you could choose models in smooth or quilted leather, to be worn with a suit or a suit jacket and midi skirt. In both cases, you can also wear a white silk blouse or a blouse with a bow, and a tailored coat.
Evening looks and special occasions
The bucket bag is not afraid of evening events either. For these occasions, it would be ideal to opt for mini models, perhaps with glittering details such as rhinestones or chains, to be worn with velvet dresses or elegant one-colour jumpsuits. For the coat, you could choose a faux fur coat or a tailored jacket.
How to carry a bucket bag: shoulder, hand or crossbody?
One of the most appreciated features of the bucket bag is its versatility of use. Depending on the occasion and the model, in fact, you can carry it in three different ways, so as to best define your style.
If you have opted for a smaller, more rigid model, to be shown off during dinners or elegant events, perhaps with cocktail dresses or tailored suits, then the ideal is to carry the bucket bag by hand.
For an urban look or for business appointments, you can instead choose a medium-sized model to be carried on the shoulder. Finally, for everyday life, crossbody models are increasingly popular, especially for their practicality.
The crossbody bucket bag is perfect for those who want to be hands-free without sacrificing style.
