Prada, Khaite, and Coach Are Validating the Anti-Quiet Bag Trend Kaia Gerber Just Wore

Based on the handbags that Kaia Gerber has regularly been photographed carrying around over the years, she seems to stick to the classics when it comes to bag trends. Simple shoulder bags are often on her arm but lately, she's been carrying a more trend-forward style all over L.A.
You've probably heard about the death of the quiet luxury aesthetic as of late, based on the S/S 25 runways. Although I don't think low-key minimalism is "dead", per se, I do think that more maximalist trends are headed our way in the coming season, and Gerber got the memo. The trend she's currently endorsing is grommet bags, and the fact that brands as mainstream and influential as Prada, Khaite, and Coach are adding them to their lineup serves as proof that it's a trend worth taking note of.
Gerber's particular bag is by cool-girl brand Paloma Wool (her black one is currently sold out but you can still snag it in brown). The tote-style bag is a more subtle take on the trend, with a row of grommets along the top of the bag. The trend, which I see as the 2025 version of the studded accessories trend, is readily available all over the internet, and I chose some of the best on the market.
