JW Anderson is making pigeons chic!

Sarah Jessica Parker left everyone in awe with her JW Anderson Pigeon Clutch Bag, which was released in the designer’s fall 2022 menswear collection. This 3D-printed statement accessory looks more real than an actual pigeon purse. Designed to be a clutch, it has a wing that flips up to reveal its storage opening and is created from 3D-printed resin. The piece quickly sold out and was also seen in the series ‘And Just Like That’, where Sarah Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw styled it with her day outfit.

Should we address the elephant in the room?

Pigeoncore, frogcore, and now elephantcore? Loewe is going gaga over its love for animals and is all set to bring the fauna into the fashion world. Designed by Jonathan Andersson for Loewe, this blue elephant-shaped bag is unusual in its shape, but it is large enough to shove all your essentials in. Easy to carry around like a spacious handbag, it can also be styled as a fashionable clutch, making things look far from subtle and anything but basic.

Who let the dogs out?

In 2016, designer Thom Browne shocked us all with a designer purse that looked like the exact replica of a dachshund dog. This Rs 30k worth dog handbag named Hector Bag instantly became everyone’s favourite and was a superhit in the fashion world. A series of adaptations and dupes were released, but none matched the energy of the real Hector, who was dressed in muted colours of black and brown, looking handsome and stylish.
