If you want to know what the current It bags are without doing a ton of recon, the easiest way to figure it out is to take a look at the bags celebrities are carrying—which I can help with. Celebrities can basically wear whatever they want, so it’s telling to see which bags they choose to carry for their off-duty time. Sure, some celebrities are brand ambassadors, but it’s still interesting to see which bags they choose from the brands that they represent.
As someone who is obsessed with It bags and thinks about them a lot, I’ve been keeping tabs on all of the current ones being carried by the likes of Kendall Jenner, Jennifer Lawrence, Emily Ratajkowski, and Taylor Swift (among others). Scroll on to see who’s wearing the most sought-after Bottega Veneta, Saint Laurent, Loewe, and Miu Miu beauties, and shop the reigning It bags for yourself.
Bottega Veneta’s Gemelli bag features a crescent-shaped pouch that’s detached from the rest of the bag. It’s perfect for everyday wear as it can be dressed up or down. Add it to the list of logo-less woven Bottega Veneta It bags.
Gucci’s current It bag is all about hardware. The oversized horsebit is a fresh spin on the brand’s signature motif.
Loewe’s slouchy Squeeze Bag was impossible to find for months. Presently, its popularity hasn’t waned but it’s much easier to find now. Fans of the bag sing praises for its buttery leather and elegant chain strap.
It makes sense that Hadid would carry a Miu Miu bag as she’s the current face of the brand, but the one she reaches for more often than not is the Arcadie Bag. The chic top-handle logo bag is perfect for every occasion.
The Row’s newest minimal It bag is a polished take on a bowling bag silhouette. Consider it one of those discreet IYKYK bags. If you’re lucky enough to find it in stock, it probably won’t be for long.
Bottega Veneta’s Andiamo Bag quickly became wildly popular and because of it, it’s now available in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors. Even the smallest size holds plenty and the bag can be carried multiple different ways, making it an excellent investment.
The slouchy tote is a newer iteration of the brand’s original Le 5 à 7 shoulder bag, which became an instant sensation when it made its debut in 2021. Even Taylor Swift, who rarely wears designer logo bags, has been carrying the larger, sloucher bag. Other celeb fans include Hailey Bieber and Laura Harrier.
Sydney Sweeney, another Miu Miu girl, has been carrying the brand’s petite Leather Hobo Bag as of late. The simple logo bag is as versatile as it gets.
For much of 2023, Jennifer Lawrence’s go-to bag was Loewe’s Puzzle Fold Tote. The simple yet special tote is the ultimate throw-it-all-in-and-go It bag.
