Kate Moss Just Wore the Autumn Bag Trend Stylish Parisians Are Already Carrying This Season

Trust Kate Moss to casually weave the season's most in-demand accessory trend into an off-duty look. With her many years spent at the epicentre of the fashion industry, the model certainly knows how to spot a trend worth investing in, and that's precisely what happened this weekend when she debuted the new handbag trend to know.
Stepping out in Paris this week for a flurry of fashion week events, Moss emerged in an all-black outfit with a slouchy leopard-print tote in her clutches. Whilst the relaxed silhouette is worth noting in itself, it's the leopard print that really caught my eye.
Selecting a roomy tote from Saint Laurent, Moss used her leopard-print bag to add an unmissable point of interest to her outfit. Regarded by many fashion people as a neutral, the fun bag added a layer of dimension to her look, making it feel more current in the process. Entirely on board with the leopard-print trend, I spotted Kate Moss style another printed pouch over the same weekend, this time opting for a small, bucket-bag style. Wearing another black look, Moss stuck to the simple styling trick, again using her leopard-print accessory to elevate her Parisian look.
Moss isn't the only person in Paris obsessing over the trend. Who What Wear UK's editor-in-chief Hannah Almassi saw the trend firsthand in the French capital this week whilst dashing around the city attending Paris Fashion Week shows, presentations and appointments. Beyond the showgoers that saturated central Paris, she told me that real-life Parisians are the ones integrating the trending print into their daily outfits in the best ways, often in the form of cute satchels, but also via shoes, scarves and dresses, too.
We're already seeing the leopard-print bag trend doing the rounds in London, New York and Milan, too. A fixture on the runways in both the autumn/winter 2024 and spring/summer 2025 shows, the playful bag trend is set to continue its meteoric rise this autumn. Read on to discover the best leopard-print bags to shop this autumn.
