10 ‘East-West’ Bags You’ll Want To Carry Everywhere You Go

Brands go for the “long” approach when it comes to giving their bags an update this season.

What do the Dior Bobby and Fendi’s Peekaboo and have in common besides possessing handsome looks? The answer lies in the way these well-known bags have been stretched into an elongated horizontal silhouette that’s colloquially known as the ‘east-west’.

We first spotted this trend for a leaner look (read: youthful) popping up during the Fall/Winter 2021 season and are happy to report that the ‘east-west’ style is bound to get more popular in the Resort 2022 collections as more brands turn to it to freshen up their repertoire of bags after seasons of the micro trend.

Ahead, our top 10 favourite picks.
