The Best, Worst, and Craziest Street-Style Bags From Fashion Month

Now that fashion month has wrapped, it’s time to take a look back at the many bags the street-stylers toted around this season. While Céline remained popular in the accessories department, the Louis Vuitton monogram made a huge comeback, popping up just as often as Phoebe Philo’s sleek creations. Also a hit: Anya Hindmarch’s whimsical totes and stickers, which not only adorned her bags but also were placed liberally on plenty of Hermès Birkins as well. And when the street-stylers weren’t sticking things onto their handbags, they were dangling things from them like Fendi fur buggies or random assorted cutesy keychains. Click ahead to relive every last egg clutch, Diet Coke cross-body, and Moschino teddy bear from the month.
