The ubiquitous farmer's market accessory, the basket, has brought us a high-fashion twist, becoming one of the most desirable items of the moment.

The uncontested summer essential: the woven basket. This iconic market carryall has found its place among the most stylish accessories of the moment. How? We've seen it on the catwalks of major brands like Jacquemus and Chanel at their Fall-Winter 2024 show. Yes, even in winter, the basket is a sure bet. Its purpose may be different, but its form is the same.

A subtle blend of relaxed and chic, the basket is the perfect carryall that adapts to any look: in dolce vita style on the Mediterranean coast or in a more urban way for your jaunts downtown.

Its main advantage? Full multi-purpose use! Its inconveniences? None. And that's all thanks to the big fashion houses which have adopted this popular accessory, adding a little something special. Whether in the form of cut outs or leather details, in mini or oversized versions, this season, it's all in the basket!

IN PRAISE OF THE LOEWE BASKET

One major fashion house rules this accessory: Loewe. The Spanish brand, which knows its way around it-bags, released several already iconic models in woven straw and raffia.

Using its signature animal, the elephant, which features on many of the brand's leather bags, Loewe offers the basket a hint of cuteness, but also more than that. With its careful design and careful, the basket is transformed from a countryside accessory to an everyday essential.

DARE TO WEAR A WOVEN BAG

What if the basket's popularity drove it to new horizons? While woven raw material is intrinsic to the concept, major fashion houses have chosen to adapt the classic in other fabrics.

Jacquemus went with leather, as demonstrated in its Soli basket in brown and blue. And Saison 1865 went with an animal print. At Printemps Paris, bet on the return of market-chic with a printed floral blue tote.

Whether in straw or beyond, dare to wear a woven bag.
