21 Statement and Neon-Colored Bags to Carry This Spring

Photographed by Angelo Pennetta, Vogue, September 2018

If there’s one trend designers could agree upon for spring, it’s the return of the brilliant, bold handbag. After a long year of, well, not having much use for our beloved totes, top handles, and clutches, spring 2021 feels like a different story. With more places to go and plans to be made, it’s time to dust off those statement-making bags, or perhaps celebrate a long-awaited reemergence with one of this season’s latest and greatest.

In bold and bright hues, the assortment of solid-colored offerings ranges from Balenciaga’s and Jacquemus’s Barbie-pink bags to Chloé’s vibrant green mini crossbody and Prada’s lemon yellow messenger. There’s also a handful of playful prints, from the candy-colored stripes on By Far’s patent Rachel shoulder bag to Simon Miller’s floral-print lunch bag clutch. Craving texture? With intricately textured handbags, Loewe, Valentino, Bottega Veneta, and Molly Goddard bring tactility to new extremes. And of course, you can’t deny the allure of an embellished accessory like Rosantica’s crystal-dotted drawstring pouch and Coperni’s glitter-dusted tote.

Whether it be bright, beaded, or bejeweled—you can’t go wrong with spring’s assortment of statement-making bags.
