A Trend Prediction No One Is Talking About: Bamboo Handle Bags

Image Via: Pinterest accessed through the glamandglitter.com

The key word here is PREDICTION, meaning we think or assume the item mentioned will trend in the foreseeable future. This does not by any means guarantee that said items will be trending, however we presume them to be.

As we’ve mentioned before, and we’ll say it again, it generally takes about 2 years to see trends trickle down into mainstream markets. The summer of ’22, Rihanna was spotted wearing a Tom Ford’s Gucci SS 1996 Python hobo bag. What made this purse standout (outside of its large design) was the bamboo handle detail. Our rule of thumb is If Rihanna is spotted wearing something, 9/10 times we will be seeing it everywhere in due time.

Here are our Top recommendations for bamboo handle bags, see below!

The Goji bag comes in a variety of colors, shapes ( YES SHAPES) and sizes. The options are endless, this coin purse design is a great size as an evening bag and can work as a day to day bag for the minimalist woman.

This list wouldn’t exist if it wasn’t for the ‘Gucci Bamboo 1947’. The idea to create a handle made of bamboo was a by-product of WWII scarcity. The limited access to leather sparked innovation, Guccio Gucci patented his innovation of using heat to mould and shape the bamboo into a handle. The bamboo was then glossed and toasted into a darker finish making each handle unique. Since its inception, the bamboo handle has been used by each creative director.

Although we do predict bamboo handles will trend (eventually), we believe this version will be the antithesis of our prediction. A leather tote with bamboo handles can only be appreciated by a specific woman. A woman who is the anti-trend.

Brandon Blackwood may not have bamboo handle bags made of wood however the designer has taken it up a notch by plating clutches, totes and handbags with gold bamboo trimming. The bamboo B collection has range! The line consists of card holders, clutches, totes, micro bags , and even some collaboration items that have the gold bamboo hardware detailing. As we all know, bamboo earrings/door knockers carry significant importance in black culture. Blackwood’s creativity inspired by black beauty supply culture and household beauty staple into evening wear, truly genius.

This is the best option for the girls who love fashion on a budget.

To put it plainly, this is the ultimate summer/vacation bag. Its unique shape and bamboo detail adorns any summer minimalist’s wardrobe consisting of pleats and/or plisse sets, maxi bubble hemlines and cotton dresses.
