Now that summer is upon us and wardrobes need to change gear to high-heat mode, it’s natural that your repertoire of accessories is also due a revamp. Roomy totes or ornate shoulder bags are the go-tos for the new season but the slick boxy bag is still prime for Instagrammable outfits. The house of Alexander McQueen has added the box bag to its offering of premium accessories, available in small (16cm) and medium (19cm) sizes. Ideal for day to night outfit transitions, this architecturally shaped bag is tipped to rocket to the top of the lust list for Spring 2017. Available in exotic crocodile and python skins as well as suede and grained goatskin leather, the new style has landed in the brand’s boutiques across the Middle East.

The color palette will transition well into the Fall 2017 season – choose from high-gloss red, laurel green, classic black, paper white, and sharp orange – and sits alongside the maison’s cherry red and carbon black wintry collection, as seen at Paris Fashion Week this past show season.
