Why Puffy, Pillow Bags Are The Perfect Winter Accessory
STORIES
BY ANNA SAUNDERS
Some fashion trends are destined for the briefest moments of fame. (Yes, we’re looking at you “Olsencore” and micro-handbags.) For a while, it looked as though puffy, pillowy handbags were headed in the same direction – doomed to star in a million Tiktok videos… and then never spotted again.
And yet it’s been years since Bottega Veneta first released its padded cassette bag, and the puffy, pillow bag trend is still going strong.
Come Autumn and Winter,
the allure of the puffy bag is obvious. As mornings grow darker and colder, there’s only one thing better than the cosy confines of your bed, and that’s carrying your pillow around with you – which is essentially what the puffy, pillow bag allows
you to do.
“We’re now seeing different shapes of this bag beyond the Bottega style, like small drawstring styles and large everyday carryalls. A trend shows some longevity once it develops beyond the initial instigator.”
