A new movement in bags is literally taking shape. Forget what you’ve heard about beginner-level geometry; it’s a mere trend – nothing more. What was once a novelty concept has now evolved into a staple. Geometric bags in various distinct shapes are both fun and functional. Just keep it to the basics, please. Nothing too complex or complicated. Stick to clean lines, simple symmetry, and a sense of flirty lightheartedness. High school geometry class was never this enjoyable.
1. The Circle: MM6 Maison Martin Margiela Small Circle Clutch
