The Lady Bag, which is a top handle satchel or small tote, is making a comeback after a one season absence from the runways. Fall 2010 was an important season for the Lady Bag as it blended well with the vintage trend which was all over the fall 2010 runways in New York, Milan, Paris and London. The spring 2011 runways shied away from the Lady Bag as the overall vibe was less structure and more movement. As the pre-fall 2011 presentations come to an end, the fashion world has been provided a snapshot of what is to come for fall 2011; structure is returning and the Lady Bag is back with a vengeance. Roberto Cavalli and Gucci, to name a couple, showed various style of the iconic Lady Bag on their pre-fall runways. Although more casual than Fall Fashion Week, the pre-fall presentations have given Fashionistas a bird eyes view into what will be hot for fall 2011. The Lady Bag was everywhere and was shown in a wider range of colors than fall 2010. Gucci presented the Lady Bag in fall colors such as military green and classic tones such as chambray. In addition to colors, designers showed varying shades of brown and of course classic black. Fabrications on the pre-fall Lady Bags were ostrich, crocodile and smooth leather. The Lady Bag is being shown once again in single top handle and double top handle styles. The detachable shoulder strap is also reappearing on the Lady Bag adding to the versatility of the handbag as a whole. With the long should strap trend, a detachable strap on a Lady Bag is key to allowing versatility in a handbag. Another trend making a comeback? Looks like Military green will be back on store shelves for fall 2011. As you comb through your closet and store your fabulous fall items, make sure you properly store your Lady Bags and military green handbags. You will be right on trend for fall when you pull them back out of storage in August.
