Last year, Khaite declared that zebra print would be the next big animal print to watch when it debuted a look in its Resort 2026 collection. The collection, presented in lookbook format, was the brand’s boldest yet. Fun prints, sheer florals, and pops of color offered a nice juxtaposition to Khaite’s staple leathers and statement silhouettes.
Along with the collection came a mix of bags, including Khaite icons like the Lotus and the Simona, but one curiously chic new lady stole the spotlight—and today we’re here to give that bag the closer look it deserves. Yes, I’m talking about the new Khaite Blake Bag.
Meet the Blake Bag
Undeniably reminiscent of Phoebe Philo’s Celine, the Blake Bag debuted earlier this season, and it oozes the sleek and sophisticated yet undeniably cool essence that defines the Khaite brand.
Since adding handbags to its lineup in 2019, designer Catherine Holstein has stayed true to Khaite’s clean, feminine aesthetic, opting to focus on key items that feel statement-making and fresh yet not trend-driven. Fashion continues to fall more and more in love.
Functionality Meets Modern Style
The Blake Bag embodies the essence of the Khaite woman—stylish with an edge, modern and contemporary, yet not overtly trendy. Additionally, the structured box bag, which features a gusseted, triple-compartment interior, is designed for the go-getter gal. It’s functional enough to take you from place to place but still feels clean and elegant.
Speaking of function, the Blake Bag’s dynamic appeal is its central selling point. While we loved it at first glance—there’s no denying it is a beautiful bag!—it also offers multiple ways to wear it. From shoulder or crossbody wear to removing the strap completely and carrying it chicly in the crook of your arm, the bag strikes a balance between functionality and style.
The Blake Bag will continue to evolve this year, appearing on the runway for Spring 2026 and featured in the brand’s recently released Pre-Fall 2026 lookbook. Currently available in smooth leather and fun printed iterations alike, the Blake Bag is quickly on its way to becoming the next staple in the Khaite lineup.
