This season witnesses the triumphant return of the hobo bag alongside the ever-reliable tote, giving style enthusiasts twice the reason to celebrate.

The hobo bag is experiencing a major revival, and fashion houses are here for it. With its signature slouchy silhouette and effortlessly chic vibe, this style is the embodiment of relaxed luxury.
