Prada's Buckle Bag Is Dua Lipa ⁘ Elsa Hosk-Approved

Modern it bags are superstars in the fashion space, thanks to a potent mix of buzzy creative directors, heritage design inspiration, and celeb endorsers, among other factors. That said, many of them exist in a vacuum. From the studded and fringed Valentino Nellcote to the boxy Dior book totes inspired by actual reading materials, there isn't a singular umbrella trend that captures today's most popular arm candy styles and kick-starts an entire design direction at the same time.

The same can't be said for the Prada Buckle, which helped ignite an industrywide obsession with belted bags since it made its debut on the Spring/Summer 2024 runway.

Though the Buckle is hardly the first carryall to equip a belt — Hermès Birkins , for instance, are famously lined with them — its release helped spark a belted revolution. Within months, buckle-accented bags were near-ubiquitous, and fashion connoisseurs had a bevy of options to choose from, including Miu Miu (Aventure) , Saint Laurent (Manhattan), and contemporary labels such as Toteme and DeMellier.

Two years in, Prada has expanded the Buckle collection to include bucket bags with a similar buckled strap, as well as embellished belts, particularly those with grunge-y studs, and double-belted options.

The "Levitating" singer wasn't the only one to embrace Prada's OG design; the likes of Chloë Sevigny and Lily James have also toted the style.

Other it girls, including Alexa Chung and Diane Kruger, were also spotted carrying varying colorways and sizes of the Buckle.

The bucket silhouette is also getting some love. Supermodel Elsa Hosk, who has one of the most enviable bag collections, cosigned the rounder arm candy and toted one with a glamorous gold metal belt.

The Buckle's versatility is courtesy of the belt itself. It can be closed for a sleeker, more tailored vibe, left undone for a more casual romp, or knotted for an effortless trick. There are also newer double-belted styles with the buckles on each side of the bag. The bags also come with detachable shoulder straps for whatever suits your mood.
