This Basket Bag Has Achieved Iconic Status—As a Shopping Editor, Here's Why It's Worth It

      The Puzzle, the Flamenco, the Hammock—Loewe has established itself as a brand adept at crafting exceptional bags. With the arrival of summer, fashion enthusiasts are eagerly unpacking the seasonal accessory they consistently choose for luxury, style, and practicality: the Loewe Anagram Basket Bag. Although summer has an official start date, I always sense the season's onset with my first glimpse of a basket bag. This style embodies the warmth of summer and serves as my personal indicator that it’s time to curate my summer attire. For a long time, the basket bag was somewhat overlooked as a fashionable way to carry our essentials, whether exploring European cities or going to the beach. This changed when the former creative director of Loewe, Jonathan Anderson, reintroduced the bag to the fashion scene in 2017.

      While many brands have attempted to create their own versions of the basket bag, Loewe has gained a reputation for excellence in this style, elevating the straw bag into the luxury market. Once the original Loewe basket bag appeared on the runways, the fashion world quickly took notice. The bag became the must-have accessory of the season, and since then, the brand has playfully reimagined this summer staple over the years. Loewe has developed a unique brand identity that harmonizes the classic with the extraordinary—any brand capable of generating excitement with both a pigeon clutch and a sought-after basket bag deserves recognition. Though its more daring creations, including tomato-stamped hot air balloons and bold collaborations, will always catch our attention, its minimalist designs are still revered for their craftsmanship, elegant aesthetics, and recognizable elements.

      The Anagram Basket Bag is a prime example of the brand’s success in timeless design. With its subtle allure as a woven basket bag, luxury is enhanced by the high-quality leather details of sturdy handles and, of course, the Loewe anagram. As a worthwhile investment, you can be confident that this is a piece you’ll cherish and use every summer for years, if not decades, to come, and its understated branding reinforces this. While many designer bags loudly announce their luxury status, the simple presence of the anagram subtly signifies its high-end origins to those in the know, while its construction and elegance convey its designer pedigree to those who may not be familiar.

      Since its introduction, the Loewe Anagram basket bag has become one of the most coveted designer bags. Due to its popularity, the brand now offers the bag in three sizes—small, medium, and large—along with a variety of designs and leather color options. The open shape lends a relaxed vibe, making it perfect for holding all your daily necessities, whether that’s snacks for a picnic in the park or towels, sunscreen, and books for a beach day. Some of my fellow fashion enthusiasts even switch out their work bags for this trendy style as temperatures rise, and with its iconic status, who can blame them?
