Every summer collection requires a basket bag—this 'IYKYK' brand is offering the most stylish options available.

      If you believe you've run out of choices for woven summer handbags, this collection of MUUÑ basket bags might provide the refreshing change you're seeking. Classics hold their status for a reason, but I get the desire for something different. These details enable an item to seamlessly integrate into your summer wardrobe instead of forcing you to adjust yours to fit it. Even if something is labeled trendy or classic, it doesn’t always correspond with your individual style. This dilemma often leads me to ponder, "How can I make this intriguing?" Whenever I encounter a look, style, or a hallmark of summer outfits, I prefer to find options that are leaning towards the unique. Once you grasp both the trends and the classics, you can more easily bend the rules and shift the parameters to better align wardrobe staples with your personal style. MUUÑ represents this idea perfectly. While basket bags are a staple come June, many can start to appear quite similar. Once you've seen one, it feels as though you've encountered them all. I felt this way too until I discovered MUUÑ, a brand that specializes in understated luxury handbags—particularly in the basket category.

      The inspiration for MUUÑ began on a trip that founder Audrey David took to Ghana, where she encountered skilled artisans who mastered traditional straw-weaving methods. By collaborating closely with the craftspeople she met and drawing inspiration from the original proponents of minimalism (Japan and Scandinavia), David set off to create MUUÑ, a line of meticulously crafted basket bags that stand out from the ordinary.

      Each bag is a collaboration among talented artisans who excel in their craft, with each contributing to the final product. Most of the basket bags remain handwoven with elephant grass in Ghana. The inner pouch is crafted by individuals with disabilities employed by ISTA. The leather tanning and finishing touches are completed in French workshops. Even the winter bags feature wool collected and knitted by women from the Caucasus in Georgia. The final result is a piece with a rich origin story and a silhouette that deviates from the usual shapes found on the high street. If you're in search of a summer basket bag that offers more character and won't feel outdated by next June, keep scrolling for 14 MUUÑ bags selected by a handbag enthusiast.
