There is a new detail sneaking into this season’s bags: ruching. A finish that transforms even the simplest designs and gives them a more special air without sacrificing versatility. So, if you’re thinking of updating your accessories for autumn, it’s worth keeping them on your radar.
We find them in shoulder bags, crossbody styles, tote-like models, and even in slightly more structured designs. In some, the ruching appears only on the sides in a discreet way; in others, it becomes the protagonist and adds volume and movement to the whole silhouette. An easy trend to wear and, above all, perfect to add a different touch to the most basic looks.
Ruching bags are one of the autumn accessory trends
Although bags with clean lines and classic shapes still have their place, this season they coexist with much more relaxed options. The ruching softens the bag’s structure and manages to make even a black, brown, or camel model feel less serious and much more current.
Moreover, they work very well with the kind of garments we wear most when autumn arrives. A pair of jeans, a shirt, a knit sweater, or a blazer can change completely by adding a bag with some volume and texture.
And there lies precisely one of the keys to this trend: you don’t need to opt for a design that’s too flashy. A simple ruching on the sides can be enough to make a basic bag have a different edge
