Suede & Quilted Bags: Textures To Break The Mould
In our book, cosy weather being on the way means that cosy textures are a high priority, and our designers have gone all in for AW26. Reintroducing the Suede and Quilted Collections; two much-loved textures that have been reworked for a fresh look. We’ve brought back your favourites in Suede and welcomed in the Wilmington, along with the entirely new Sunbury and Sunbury Mini in both Suede & Leather. In colours that tempt the autumn leaves to turn, this utterly soft suede leather is crafted into the perfect chilly weather accessory.
With a complete makeover, Quilted has returned better than ever. Available in five colourways - beloved core colours and seasonal - this design now features two different patterns, Square and Diamond. Whether you’re staying true to your favourite Original and City Bags, or yearning to venture into new territory, there’s a bag in this collection that’s ready to meet the mark. Read on to discover yours.
Sumptuous Suede
With suede dominating trends the last two autumn winters, we couldn’t resist the urge to refresh our collection; both in colour and design. Featured in five colourways - Black, Chestnut, Mocha, Herb Green and Chocolate - our genuine suede takes a new look this season. Coming back in full suede is our Original and City Bags, this time without the central leather panel, and with a matching, adjustable suede strap. Following some clever shapeshifting, Herb Green and Chocolate Suede are now available in the Wilmington and brand new Sunbury and Sunbury Mini Bags, to bring you to a new level of effortless elegance, with a delicate interweaving of Suede and Leather.
If the turning season is encouraging you to move toward softer fabrics, adding a tactile feel to otherwise simple outfits is the way forward. The only question is your style and size preference, do you love an everyday crossbody bag? Or prioritise sleek, seasonal designs? Our Wilmington offers a classic saddle bag shape, with a contrast of textures between suede and pebbled leather and a structured finish. The Sunbury presents a slouchy, curved silhouette with plenty of compartments and enough room for anything your heart desires. The little sister to this style is the Sunbury Mini, with the same magnetic closure, a shorter shoulder strap, and a slightly more structured shape, the size of this design makes the perfect brunch-to-drinks bag for suede lovers. Not only will the Sunbury and Mini add new levels of boho sophistication to your look, but they’ll also win you over with spaciousness.
Keeping it Quilted
Moving on to explore new patterns this season, we’re bringing a fresh look to an all-time classic, Diamond and Square are here to reignite your winter wardrobes. With clean geometric textures in classic core colours, they strike a beautiful balance between simplicity and depth. The Diamond Quilted features a double stitching detail, emphasising the texture and showcasing an eye for detail in leather craftsmanship. Meanwhile, the Square Quilted is reminiscent of traditional tartan weaves with its intricate sewing pattern. Sitting on the spectrum of AW26 trends, and available in warm, earthy colours, Squared Quilted is breathing new life into heritage favourites by giving it never-before-seen silhouettes.
Old Becomes New
This collection is a reminder that the classics are classic for a reason. Adding a twist to archival designs can be just the thing that you need for a seasonal refresh. With Suede and Quilted reworked for AW26, you’re bound to find the perfect autumn bag with a headturning edge.
