The Backpack Is Back!

You don’t have to be going back to school to appreciate the backpack! It’s one of our much-loved Fall/Winter 2015-16 fashion trends and we have seen them all over the place. Although it may conjure up thoughts of teenage years hauling around textbooks, these designers have re-imagined the high school essential and offered a variety of chic, cool backpacks in colours that are sleek enough for adults at work or play!

Thanks to Miuccia Prada for creating the nylon backpack in the ‘80s, it has since shaken off its utilitarian, outdoorsy stigma. Although the backpack’s fashionability is still something that is more seasonal compared to other classic bag silhouettes, its popularity is back on our trend radar. Its unisex appeal also makes it totally okay to borrow from the boys!


If you’re a fan of the monogrammed look, Gucci’s coated jacquard Blooms backpack has you sorted.



Prada has since moved on from its classic black and solid-coloured nylon backpacks into something fresher and more feminine with this vibrant colour-blocked version.



Add a dose of street cred with Fendi’s Bug Backpack. With this amount of attitude, the Monster has got you covered.



Instead of draping a motorcycle jacket over your shoulders, why not carry it on your back instead? This cleverly disguised Moschino backpack turns you into the coolest and sassiest chica on the block!
