A newer trend making the rounds is the deliberately unfastened bag: zippers left open, flaps undone, straps worn loose rather than buckled tight. It’s a callback to how Jane Birkin herself famously carried her own Hermès Birkin, undone and off duty rather than precious, and it’s shown up across several runway collections this season, Loewe’s Amazona among them, as a styling choice rather than a functional one.
An Easy Trend, With One Real Risk
Styling a bag “undone” is free, no purchase required, just wear yours a little looser than you might normally. The one thing worth knowing: an open bag is an easier target for pickpockets and a higher risk of dropping something, so treat it as a look for low risk settings rather than a crowded train platform. Fashion-forward and streetwise aren’t always the same decision.
