There’s no denying the versatility of the humble straw bag — the neutral hues work with any outfit and for any occasion, whether it’s going for a workout or Sunday brunch with your favourite pals.
Even the legendary woman that inspired Hermès’ Birkin bags – Jane Birkin – was famously known for carrying a wicker bag everywhere she went in the 1970s.
