Trend Report: For Spring 2016, These Aren’t Your Typical Denim Handbags and Shoes

Whatever previous notions you have of denim accessories, be prepared for Spring 2016 to do away with them once and for all. Denim is back in full force in the accessories realm, and these handbags and shoes aren’t like the frayed, patchwork versions that came before. And that’s great, because the look is shaping up to be a warm-weather staple.

Denim handbags and shoes may sound too casual and sloppy, but this season’s crop looks surprisingly sophisticated. Embellished denim bags can be true works of art, as you’ll notice on Valentino‘s and Stella McCartney‘s versions, and even more simple implementations look surprisingly clean and tailored.

Denim footwear also works really well because of the modern ways the material is used. Instead of playing to traditional ideas of how the fabric should be styled, designers have given it a new life in clean, well-edited pumps and sandals that treat it like a high-end textile.

Wow, the Nightingale and the Valentino are really great. I noticed that Chanel has a lot of denim bags coming in SS act 1 that were nice as well.

When denim is done well in accessories (like here) it looks great. Fresh and fun. Problem is longevity. Lucky if you get 18 months use out of them because the fabric yellows quickly. Also dye transfer is an issue, especially with dark denim. My first thought on the Nightingale was: do not wear with white – EVER!!

It’s enough stress as it is to worry about my denim pants rubbing off on my light leather bags.. Now it’s the opposite?! If I get these bags I have to worry about them rubbing off on my lighter clothes! Ha! Catch 22!!

Eva

and a hippy chick look with embroidered denim Rockstud mini-tote by Valentino?

You’d think. Especially since they don’t last.
Chanel did the FELT bags a few seasons ago and charged like $3000 for them. Crazy.
