Fashion is forever inspired by the allure (and often unrealistic expectation) of effortless French style. And one of the most popular bags for fall embodies that casual and elegant aesthetic in several different ways with the net bag, which draws from the look of the totes you might see at a French market. The look was a favorite among designers at Vetements, Prada, and Rejina Pyo on the runway—and today it can be found in simple crocheted cotton totes priced well under your average It bag. More-dramatic takes on the trend include fringe, bold structures, and handles that resemble bangle bracelets.
