Named the “Hug bag,” its design takes inspiration from the very essence of a hug – evoking emotions, and spotlighting the intense dedication of the artisans behind its creation. Ferragamo’s Maximilian Davis had already put out memorable accessories like the Geometric shoulder bag, the Wanda bag, and the Elina sandals — all worthy of new classics status. Now, his modern, timeless and plush Hug bag is ready to go from the catwalk to your closet.
Its distinctive design lies in its construction: two straps, finished with Gancini closures, embracing the front panel — yes, just like a hug. Both elegant and functional at once, the Hug bag is available in brushed calfskin, patent leather and suede, as well
as two sizes and in the following formats: tote bag version or soft pouch style to carry under the arm. Drawing from Ferragamo’s long-standing legacy of unparalleled craftsmanship, the Hug bag stands as a timeless emblem of elegance and intricate refinement. Each piece resonates with the mastery of Florentine artisans, symbolizing a melding of heritage and innovation.
2. BVLGARI, ROMA MEDIUM TOP HANDLE BAG

Today, once again drawing inspiration from the cultural heritage and unmatched beauty of the Eternal City, Bulgari presents the BVLGARI Roma handbag, a new style that translates the Maison’s unique DNA into a contemporary and refined design. Perfectly combining functionality, streamlined elegance, and unmatched details, this new bag is poised to become Bulgari’s next icon thanks to its versatile and easy-to-match appeal. The top handle’s shape plays on the distinctive combination of a rigid and spacious body with the curved lines of the metallic decoration.
This iconic element, featuring the Bulgari logo in Roman capitals, representing the bag’s signature and forms a complete circle with the rounded top handles. The detachable and adjustable leather shoulder strap allows for easy transitioning from a crossbody or shoulder carry to a more sophisticated hand carry. Embodying Bulgari’s mastery of gem-like colors, unique craftsmanship, and precious materials, the bag is crafted from top-quality calf leather, enhanced by a natural treatment that amplifies its intrinsic soft touch and luxurious allure.

Now, almost a decade later – the house has reimagined one of his very first handbag designs in the form of the GO-14, a quilted lambskin bag that has already been seen on the arms of every A-lister celebrity. Thus, this Louis Vuitton’s newly re-released bag, includes how the style nods to one of the house’s most iconic design signatures, and the fascinating craftsmanship that goes into its creation.
Turning this iconic trademark of the brand into the signature of the GO-14, which has been created in padded lambskin and has a curved and cushiony feel. Indeed, GO-14 is a generous, sensual padded lambskin bag covered in this bouncy, infinitely soft mallet age with overstitching highlighting the design’s curves and cushiony feel. The GO-14 is a versatile bag that can be worn in many different ways to match every woman’s mood: on or over the shoulder with its new jewel chain as supple as a gold necklace; on the arm or handheld, as the chain can also be doubled thanks to a brand-new groove system.
