It’s Confirmed—These Are The 7 Best JW Anderson Bags to Invest In

And lastly, it would not be a roundup of the best JW Anderson bags if we didn’t mention one of the most exciting drops to come out of the British fashion house in recent memory. Drumroll, please… meet the Bumper Bag. Despite making its debut on the S/S23 runway, this bag style quickly garnered cult status among the celeb and fashion set—fans include Dua Lipa, Emrata, and Rina Sawayama for the record. But it’s not just this bag’s meteoric rise in popularity that makes it such a sound purchase at this moment and beyond. Instead, the bag’s idiosyncratic shape encapsulates Andreson’s entire design perspective—i.e., he can take the seemingly “mundane” and transform it into something magical.

For this bag, Anderson drew inspiration from inverted travel pillows, hence the dramatic bumper edge, which is filled with tubing, to create this bag. The bag comes in multiple silhouttes (including a baguette, clutch, and crescent shape), numerous sizes, various colorways, and textures. Of course, the style is eclectic; it’s not your run-of-the-mill designer bag, but that’s what makes it a worthwhile purchase. So much of Anderson’s work taps into our collective imagination, and a single price tag can’t fully encapsulate the added value of that type of creativity.
