Doctor’s orders! The traditional medic-inspired satchel is getting reinvented all sorts of ways for fall, and Reed Krakoff’s Uniform bag is the latest to join the pack. It still boasts that luggage-like feel, but a heightened, ever-so slightly elongated shape completely changes the connotation.
It’s amazing what a perfectly placed pocket can do; set in an oversized scale, the proportions make the otherwise classic bag feel youthful and spunky. Past Krakoff bags, from the Boxer to the Gym, have been desirable from a design perspective, but not so much in the way of real life. The no-joke weight and over-engineered flaps, straps, and what nots make for a bag that’s hard to wear, not to mention tough on your arms. At long last, a beauty to behold – and to actually hold! At Saks Fifth Avenue for $1,790.
Pair with: Take a tan bag into fall with something new from Proenza Schouler. Their striped tweed-chiffon skirt injects hue without being blatantly colorful. At Barneys New York for $795.
Wow! Love this bag… it’s perfect!
Absolutely gorgeous bag! It took my breath away. You can see the quality by just looking at it. Almost make me want to have fall come early!
