In fashion, what goes around always<\/em> comes around\u2014meaning even an It bag from the past can enjoy a new life in 2026.<\/p>\n

Celebrities everywhere seem to be reaching for deep-cut designer pieces lately. While Rihanna and Tyla have both revisited Louis Vuitton\u2019s 2000s-era collaboration with Takashi Murakami, Bella Hadid has been spotted carrying a Balenciaga City bag and PinkPantheress has rocked a Fendi Spy bag.<\/p>\n

Reviving archival bags is not a new concept, of course; designers love putting retro shapes and styles back onto the runway. Did you see the Celine Phantoms in Michael Rider\u2019s spring 2026 collection? Or the sleek Chanel Executive totes on Matthieu Blazy\u2019s pre-fall catwalk? Or the recurring Paddingtons at Chlo\u00e9? The hottest new bags are\u2026 not new at all!<\/p>\n

The movement got us thinking: What once-buzzy styles from fashion\u2019s past most deserve a moment this year? With New York Fashion Week just around the corner, we\u2019re bound to see some throwback accessories on the street style scene.<\/p>\n

From stealthy Calvin Klein purses to utilitarian Herm\u00e8s styles, here are the vintage It bags that Vogue<\/em> editors would love to see again in 2026.<\/p>\n

The Mulberry Bayswater<\/h2>\n

Every now and then, I go look at Alexa Chung\u2019s old street style photos because they\u2019re so good, and one bag that she always had was a Mulberry Bayswater bag. I\u2019m hoping for a 2026 resurgence\u2014but not before I buy one on eBay! \u2014Irene Kim, production and editorial associate, Vogue Runway<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The Marc Jacobs Blake<\/h2>\n

I have been really into the Marc Jacobs Blake bag again, first introduced back in the early aughts. Those two large cargo pockets are super functional, and I love the colorful, upbeat colors that they come in. (Especially the light blue.) Fun fact: It is also the bag that Andy gifts her friend in The Devil Wears Prada<\/em>, to which she replies, \u201cThis is sold out everywhere\u2014gimme, gimme!\u201d Mood. \u2014Christian Allaire, senior fashion and style writer, Vogue<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The Herm\u00e8s Fourre-Tout<\/h2>\n

This may be boring, but I\u2019m a big fan of a practical tote, which is why I\u2019m ready for Herm\u00e8s to bring back their Fourre-Tout canvas carry-alls. In recent years, I\u2019ve noticed them stocked in nearly every cool vintage store in New York, and I see so many twenty-somethings on the subway using them as their everyday work bag. I\u2019d love to see the style return in new, playful colorways (and hopefully at a similarly accessible\u00a0price point!). \u2014Mai Morsch, fashion editor, Vogue<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Celine totes<\/h2>\n

Michael Rider bought back the Phantom Bag in 2025, and in 2026, I want more from the Celine archives! My biggest regret was not buying this bag, and I\u2019d love to see them re-release it with more fun, interesting colors! I\u2019m also on the hunt for a new work bag that fits my laptop, so if they could make this happen sooner rather than later, my handbag collection would really appreciate it! \u2014Libby Page, executive commerce director, Vogue Shopping.<\/em><\/p>\n

Calvin Klein Frame bags<\/h2>\n

In the late \u201990s, Calvin Klein made a Frame bag in shiny Spazzolato leather that was so modern granny-chic. I was constantly breaking the clasp by stuffing too much into it, but I loved its structure and gloss. Unfortunately, I can\u2019t find the exact image of it\u2014it was a deep cut!\u00a0This is the closest, but it was a bit more angular and less rounded. \u2014Virginia Smith, global head of fashion network, Vogue<\/em>.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve had my eye on the Chanel Executive tote ever since it reappeared on Matthieu Blazy\u2019s runway. It\u2019s the kind of vintage piece that\u2019s destined to spike in value\u2026 so if there was ever a moment to invest, it\u2019s now! \u2014Naomi Eliz\u00e9e, fashion market director, Vogue<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Paloma Picasso book bags<\/h2>\n

This is one for the scholars! I\u2019ve been bidding on Paloma Picasso\u2019s Italian-made \u201980s and \u201990s Book bags (and for evening, the Baby Book). Each is shaped like a hardback with a raised spine and detachable strap in lots of glamorous material and hardware combos.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

You may know her as Picasso\u2019s daughter, YSL\u2019s accessory designer (and Anthony Vaccarello\u2019s recent Saint Laurent muse), Tiffany & Co.\u2019s jeweler, perfumer, actor, and\u2026 the original it-girl? She mentions in an archival Style.com interview that \u201cbefore I started designing a lot I was actually designing my own self.\u201d An artist after my own heart! \u2014Arden Fanning Andrews, beauty editor at large, Vogue<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The Proenza Schouler PS1 bag<\/h2>\n

While everyone was obsessing over the Balenciaga City bag in 2013, I was (and always will be) a Proenza Schouler PS1 girl. I pulled mine out from the back of my closet last year and was met with more than a few \u201cwow, I used to love mine!\u201d comments from colleagues when I wore it to the Vogue<\/em> office. With all the iconic 2010s bags making a comeback, I\u2019m hoping the PS1 gets its moment again too. \u2014Taylor Lashley, social media manager, Vogue<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Fendi, Kate Spade, and Judith Leiber\u2014oh my!<\/h2>\n

I love a bag that carries stuff<\/em>\u2014a lot of it\u2014so my first instincts were the Fendi Spy bag (my mom had one and I was obsessed with the secret compartment!) or the OG Kate Spade Sam, two bags that shaped my childhood and interest in fashion. But the sparkle, allure, and kitsch of Judith Leiber\u2019s tiny bags are also irresistible. Designed before iPhones, these Swarovski-covered purses came in themes and shapes that delight the imagination: a shaken-not-stirred martini! Asparagus wrapped up with a bow! Cats of every shape, size, and shade! (Never forget the cupcake bag that was a major player in the Sex and the City<\/em> movie.) You may not be able to carry a lot in a Leiber bag, but they have personality in spades. \u2014Margaux Anbouba, senior beauty and wellness editor, Vogue<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The Row evening bags<\/h2>\n

I love a precious evening bag, even if it can fit next to nothing in it. The Row had two that I\u2019d love to see return: the Ascot, an origami-like purse with a knotted handle, and a petite tassel clutch, in the most delicious jewel-toned velvets (rarer still are the ones with embroidered pouches). The tassels will need a comb; perhaps they can carry one inside? \u2014Talia Abbas, commerce director, Vogue Shopping<\/em>.<\/p>\n
