These pieces don’t sport the classic silhouettes of your average designer bag, but that doesn’t mean they’re not worth a try.
Luxury bags prized for their classic and sophisticated structures. The tote, hobo, traveler, and doctor silhouettes combine style and functionality, which is why they’re commonly used by fashion houses for the designs of their signature bags.

If you’re looking for pieces that stand out and serve as great conversation starters, look no further. These bags will certainly add some whimsy to your collection:
