PurseBlog Asks: Which brand is Making the best Bags ideal Now?

“The best” is a very particular phrase. people use it in place of “my favorite” all the time, maybe because we always want to believe that the things we like are also objectively useful and worth appreciating, but its literal indicating is a little a lot more narrow than that. When you’re being as objective as possible about evaluating a group of things, the one that’s the best may not necessarily be the one you personally take pleasure in the most. taste is a funny thing that way. with that in mind, let’s talk about the best bags.

When I think of all the high-end designers known for handbags, Chloé‘s current output is the one that sticks out to me the most ideal now. In her time at Chloé, designer Clare Waight Keller has refined the brand’s aesthetic world into something very certain and recognizable while regularly debuting new bags that don’t crib from popular designs from other brands and that feel created to be carried in everyday life, instead of simply admired. The brand has also resisted the stratospheric pricing leaps of some of its competitors, which indicates that you can still get an awesome Chloé day bag for under two grand. As silly as that statement seems at first blush, it’s not the case at plenty of comparable brands.

My only regret about Chloé is that the brand doesn’t exactly align with my personal taste–the brand skews toward buyers who like tan bags and gold hardware, while I like black and silver, respectively. That’s okay, though; the brand’s aesthetic is best for tons of women trying to find sophisticated, casual luxury bags, and Chloé’s current lineup is broad enough that it does include some pieces that would fit in my wardrobe perfectly, even though someone like me isn’t the company’s target. That the brand’s collection is finely tuned enough to still feel like Chloé but broad enough to reach lots of buyers is, in my mind, another point of the lots of in the brand’s favor.

If you’re similarly fond of Chloé’s current designs, you can shop the brands bags by means of Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom and Saks.

So now, you tell us: which brand is doing the best handbag work ideal now, and why?
