Welcome to our list of the Top 10 Loud Luxury Bags!
Loud luxury doesn’t necessarily mean tacky. Loud luxury bags are those instantly recognizable styles that often have monogram prints or logos. Quiet luxury is trending right now, but there is nothing wrong with loud luxury! Some of the most stylish and famous designer bags are loud and here I’ll show you the best ones!
So, without further ado here are the Top 10 Loud Luxury Bags:
1. Fendi Baguette
It was 1997, when minimalism was all the rage, that Fendi launched the first It Bag in history, the Fendi Baguette. The bag was anything but minimalist, but because of its iconic style and pop culture it became one of the most important bags in fashion history. The bag was designed by Silvia Venturini Fendi. It was intended to be worn short strapped and tight under the arm in the very same way French people are usually seen carrying their baguettes. The bag was a breakout success. More than 100,000 bags were sold in the first year alone, and its appearance in Sex and The City solidified it’s place as the ultimate It Bag.
Today, 25 years after its debut, the Fendi Baguette, remains a stylish it bag that is iconic of the brand and one of the most classic designer shoulder bags!
2. Dior Book Tote
The Book Tote was launched in 2018, today is a favorite of Dior clients and is one of the best designer tote bags! It’s not difficult to see why Dior’s Book Tote remains so popular – the style, which has fast become a staple of the house, is the perfect way to elevate any daytime ensemble. The Dior Book Tote is distinguished by its seamless combination of sophistication and relaxed style. The Maria Grazia Chiuri creation has been reimaged in an array of silhouettes and styles, each one as elegant as the last. The tote exemplifies the House’s signature savoir-faire and may be carried by hand or worn over the shoulder.
And if you are tired of the classic Dior print, each seasonal collection comes with new designs for you to choose from.
3. Chanel 19 Bag
Most Chanel bags bare the iconic double C logo and are instantly recognizable, therefor loud, and the Chanel 19 is the loudest and perhaps the most stylish of them all! Named after 2019, the year it debuted, the Chanel 19 handbag quickly rose to legendary status. Unveiled in March 2019 for the Fall/Winter 2019 collection, the Chanel 19 would be solidified in history as the last major handbag designed by Karl Lagerfeld, before he passed away in February 2019. In a collaborative effort, Largerfeld and Virginie Viard – Chanel’s current creative director – reimagined and paid tribute to the iconic Chanel 2.55 bag and the Classic Flap. Recognized for its contemporary feel, the Chanel 19 is much slouchier than its predecessors, and the strap is composed of three chunky chains in silver, aged gold and ruthenium.
Additionally, the gold chain handle and exaggerated diamond quilting enhance the Chanel 19’s casual, chic style and sought-after signature design.
4. Gucci Blondie
Launched in early 2022 the Gucci Blondie is a perfect example that a long-lasting bag doesn’t need to be minimalist! Inspired by archival designs from the 1970s, the House’s newest line of handbags and belt bags is distinguished by a rounded Interlocking G hardware. Crafted from leather, this shoulder bag is completed by a delicate chain strap, infusing this accessory with a refined feel. There is also a larger version with the web shoulder strap and a mini one with a leather strap.
This bag taps into the retro revival trend that is a favorite of Gucci, this is a beautiful bag that you will love forever.
5. Louis Vuitton Alma
All Louis Vuitton monogram bags can be considered loud luxury, including classic styles like the Alma! Rumor goes that the Alma was originally made for Coco Chanel in 1925 as a custom order. Its rounded shape and two top handles are inspired by Art Deco, it is as iconic today as it was 100 years ago. In 1934 Coco gave permission for Louis Vuitton to sell the bag to the public and history was made. Its unmistakable shape makes this compact bag a timeless classic. There are multiple colors and materials to choose from, as well as sizes. It also comes with a detachable strap so you can wear this bag as a crossbody or top handle. There is an Alma bag for every taste.
The Alma bag was the only non-Chanel bag that Coco Chanel ever carried. If it was good enough for Chanel it is good enough for me!
6. Saint Laurent Icare Bag
With an oversized YSL logo this bag is definitely loud but super stylish! Saint Laurent’s Icare Maxi Shopping Bag, introduced as a part of the brand’s Summer 2022 collection, is a sophisticated-cool silhouette that is made for everyday wear. Luxuriously crafted with soft lambskin complemented with sleek quilting, the oversized, soft, voluminous shape is the perfect shopping companion.

Whipped up in canvas, this larger-than-life bag is printed with the style name on the front, trimmed with soft leather and topped with two leather twin handles.

8. Goyard Saint Louis Tote
One of the most classic monogram tote bags, the Goyard St. Louis served as inspiration for all the monogram tote bags that came after. The Saint Louis bag was initially designed as a beach bag. Reversible, with the Goyardine on the inside it is perfect for taking home wet things after a day at the beach. It is also a perfect tote for everyday wear, from work meetings to running errands. The name of the bag is a reference to King Louis IX of France, known as Saint Louis. This tote is the most iconic and famous bag of Goyard! The tote gained mainstream popularity in the early 2000’s on the arms of celebrities like Hillary Duff and Pharrell Williams. The St. Louis tote is made from Goyardine and is unlined. It is also extremely light and completely reversible.
This is a staple bag that will always be chic.
9. Coach Tabby Bag
This is a baguette bag that is loud and super stylish! A modern take on an archival 1970s Coach design, the structured Tabby shoulder bag is crafted in polished pebble leather, or with a pillow finish. This bag was super popular in the 2000’s and now it is trending once more! If you’ve been searching for a bag that will take you through season after season, year after year, this style has the perfect forever-chic look.
The style’s divided interior helps keep essentials beautifully organized, while interchangeable shoulder and crossbody straps offer styling versatility.
10. Dior Saddle Bag
The Saddle Bag was first created in 1999 at the peak of John Galliano’s Dior tenure. Its initial appearance toed the line between what was considered high fashion and, for lack of a better word, ugly. In the early 2000`s the bag was sported by everyone, from Beyoncé to Carrie Bradshaw. The bag is intended to be worn short trapped and tight against the arm like a saddle, hence the name. After the enormous success of the bag in the 2000’s, the bag was discontinued in the 2010’s. In 2018 Maria Grazia Chiurri relaunched this bag and it has since become a part of the classic styles of the brand. The Dior Saddle bag takes its cues from the equestrian world. The inspiration can be seen in the graphic design with the now iconic asymmetrical flap.
The Saddle is definitely loud luxury, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t a classic!
