The accessorising game has long been largely dominated by women, while men played in the sneakers-and-watches playground. But nowadays, it’s becoming clear that men are also embracing the sartorial power (and convenience) of a statement handbag. Style icons like Jacob Elordi and A$AP Rocky have made headlines for their impressively curated collection of designer bags, integrating them into their fashion choices in new and progressively bolder ways.
Additionally, brands like Hermès, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, and Prada quickly adapted to the trend and positioned their bags as unisex. Ahead, here’s a look at the male stars that are owning the handbag game.
Pharrell Williams
Pharrell Williams has been establishing himself as a game changer in the fashion world. As the men’s creative director at Louis Vuitton, he is rarely seen without his trusty Louis Vuitton Speedy. The fashion-forward entrepreneur continues to break norms in influencing the way modern men express their style.
Jacob Elordi
Fans will know that Jacob Elordi has a weakness for luxury handbags in all sizes. His collection is outstanding, from designer classics to straight off the runway. The Hollywood star, nicknamed “Bottega Boy”, has been captured sporting the Andiamo, Intrecciato, Casette, and Cabat from Bottega Veneta.
A$AP Rocky
A$AP Rocky is never afraid to make a statement with his accessories. The rapper and fashion mogul has been spotted wearing capacious bags from Bottega Veneta and Louis Vuitton. Most recently, he was seen in the streets carrying Celine’s new Luggage Smile bag in the large size.
Timothée Chalamet
Timothée Chalamet loves a mini crossbody bag. The “Marty Supreme” star was spotted twice with a mini Hermes classic slung over his shoulder. He was previously carrying an orange mini Kelly, solidifying it as a genuine wardrobe staple.
Travis Scott
Not only has Travis Scott become one of the most influential dudes in hip hop, he’s also established himself as a fashion guy. The rapper has shown off his rare collection of crocodile-leather Birkin and impressively large Louis Vuitton bags.
Harris Dickinson
There’s a new bag boy in town. Harris Dickinson made his recent appearance carrying the classic Balenciaga City bag, adding an edgy touch to his off-duty style. The actor opted for a look that’s relaxed yet effortlessly put-together.
