As we noted during our look at all the saddle bags suddenly on the market for Fall 2015, the 70s trend that popped up all over the runways has indeed translated to retail. That has implications beyond just bag shape, though; it also means that the color palette for the season skews decidedly retro, most notably in the resurgence of tan leather and suede bags.
Black is always the easiest color to find a bag in, and although tan and brown are also standard neutrals, they had largely fallen out of favor in high fashion over the past few seasons and it took the 70s revival to bring them back around. Now that pre-fall and fall bags are popping up on shopping sites left and right, the magnitude of the trend is clear. Brands are producing both old favorites and new releases in whiskey-hued leather, so if you’re sick of black and grey, now’s your time.
