Exploration around perception, nature and progress. SS23 is about taking something from the past and take it into tomorrow, making it useful for the future. Proposing reassuring forms with futuristic undertones and a sensibility for creativity and individuality is the tenor for design now. Men’s bags are returning to be a promising category. From big trends, like commute-ready totes and duffle bags and even more explorative backpacks and utilitarian styles, the purpose and functionality of bags is leveling up for SS23. Further highlight include circular styles that are coming over from the womenswear market and have shown great success or barrel-shapes that draw upon the desire for adrenaline-rush activities, like sport, skate and race. Looking at the more cutting-edge range, #kidult bags that reflect on toys and school-bags have been popping up from Louis Vuitton to Kidsuper and Kenzo. Take a look at the SS23 inspiration:
