Emma Watson and Sofia Richie Own the Prada Bag Editors Can't Stop Thinking About
There’s a new cult bag on the scene. It’s bound in supple leather and found in the clutches of all of our favourite celebrities. The big sister to Prada's beloved Re-Nylon Bag, the Arqué Leather Shoulder Bag has the grown-up edge of a sleek leather finish and sinuous silhouette that awards it cult status.
Already spotted on the arms of Emma Watson and Sofia Richie Grainge during Milan Fashion Week late last month, the bag, which has been hovering on our radar for some time now, has once again been sighted, this time with Gigi Hadid.
Styling her bag with an oversized leather jacket and casual baseball cap, Hadid gave a laid-back twist to her co-ordinated leather-on-leather look. And back in Milan, Richie Grainge wore the same bag in black, bringing her cool-girl elegance to the front row of the Prada S/S 24 runway, styling her Arqué bag with black slingbacks, ankle-grazing trousers, a longline wool coat and a vibrant red turtleneck.
Emma Watson was also in attendance at the Prada show, where she wore an all-black outfit comprising her Prada Arqué bag, a halterneck LBD and sleek, pointed-toe court shoes. Forgoing other accessories, Watson let her bag do the talking for a minimal take on party dressing.
Joining a stylish roster of devoted Prada fans, Emma Watson, Gigi Hadid and Sofia Richie Grainge are in excellent company with this new-season hit, which is certain to be a best seller.
