Western Handbags Are Taking Over. Shop 9 Luxury Favorites

If you thought we were leaving the Western craze of 2024 behind—Beyonce’s Cowboy Carter and Pharrell Williams’ turquoise bolo ties—think again: That was only the beginning. In 2025, the cowgirl renaissance continues, blending seamlessly with the flourishing boho-chic revival spearheaded by Chemena Kamali’s reimagined vision for Chloé. The newest spin? A bold, free-spirited aesthetic on handbags that fuses rodeo codes, a line dancing feeling, and early aughts-festival fashion with a dash of grunge and flou.

Although the Western-boho blend has been steadily gaining traction via floral lace blouses, cascading ruffles, and sleek riding boots, the Spring/Summer 2025 runways unveiled a new frontier of country-chic purses. From hardware-accented suede at Isabel Marant to exposed stitching at Michael Kors, and intricate embroidery at Bottega Veneta, designers offer a rich array of Americana elements into the accessories for the sunny season.

Among all, one bag stood out as the undeniable It accessory: Valentino’s fringed Nellcôte bag. Adorned with ball studs and silver rivets for a rugged-luxe twist, Alessandro Michele’s frilled design is at once worthy of a Sergio Leone spaghetti Western and a Glastonbury weekend. Endorsed by Bella Hadid (the reigning cowgirl of the moment), the bag perfectly embodies the blasé charm and unbridled elegance of the new season.
