Summer Trends 2025: The Bucket Bag is this Season's Must-Have
As summer approaches, bucket bags in straw or wicker are making waves as the ultimate wardrobe staple. These timeless accessories embody the effortless charm of warm-weather style, seamlessly transitioning from beachside retreats to city strolls. While the Hermès Birkin bag is a legendary icon, it was Jane Birkin’s simple woven straw basket that truly sparked a fashion revolution. Her ability to carry it everywher, from black-tie events to the market; cemented its status as a symbol of casual elegance.

For Summer 2025, bucket bags are dominating collections with innovative designs that elevate their classic appeal. Gucci has embraced the trend with oversized double GG logos, blending straw with leather for a luxurious twist. Tod’s offers a refined take, mixing leather accents with the natural texture of wicker. Loewe reinvents the bucket bag with playful parrot-inspired designs, perfect for crossbody wear and adding a touch of whimsy to summer outfits.
Louis Vuitton’s Capucines Mini bag stands out as the epitome of craftsmanship. Each model is meticulously handwoven from rattan, taking two days to complete. Trimmed with leather and adorned with the iconic LV Initials in gold, this bag is featured in campaigns with Zendaya, capturing the essence of summer sophistication. Meanwhile, Italian brand Le Nine continues to redefine the bucket basket, adding crystal embellishments that transform it into a statement piece.
