These Under-The-Radar Handbag Brands Are Going To Be Everywhere This Fall

With only a few summer days left, it's just about time to trade your raffia handbags and terry cloth totes for something a bit more fall-appropriate. Now that textured micro-purses have cooled, there's grown an appetite for smooth, sizable alternates — buckets and hobo bags, for instance — all of which are primed for fall wear. While it might be second nature to scope out the major fashion houses first, there are tons of emerging bag brands to have on your radar for fall, all of whom are putting their own spin on runway favorites. To make things easier, TZR's rounded out the under-the-radar names and bags that It-girls expect to blow up this season. Getting acquainted early is encouraged, as key styles are sure to sell out quickly.

For fans of LOEWE's cult-favorite Balloon bag, Find Kapoor is the brand to get acquainted with. Best known for its color-blocked bucket bags and ribbon-tying totes, the brand is a household name amongst Korea-based celebrities and street style fans, and it's quickly drumming up buzz overseas. Dior Bobby bag lovers will love Audette's curvaceous shoulder bags, which cross Mexico City's energetic shapes and color-ways with classic Parisian savoir faire. Overall, each brand's repertoire is filled with styles that are severely wearable and remarkably luxe, all for price points worth getting behind. The best part? By shopping them, you're helping to keep small businesses going and sparing your wallet, at the same time.
