NET-A-PORTER might be home to some of your favourite luxury brands, but the online site is also known for carrying a good mix ranging from up-and-coming labels to avant-garde designers like Dries Van Noten. Part of the fashion collective known as the ‘Antwerp Six’, the Belgian designer is best known for his vibrant RTW designs, and you will be pleased to know that Dries Van Noten has a new bold and quirky handbag as well. Known as the Pillow Bag, it is identified by its billowy-soft body and a padded top handle furnished with a knot at each end.

Some of the newer colours include the tartan series, offered in combinations like amber red and dark yellow in a small and medium size respectively. Meant to be cradled around like a cute little dumpling, the Pillow Bag can also be worn under the arm via the top handle, making for a delightful treat for all your weekend adventures around town. It’s fun, it’s different and it comes with a price point that will not break the bank either.

Priced from USD625, you can find Dries Van Noten’s Pillow Bag over at NET-A-PORTER, with the small measuring 22 cm by 13 cm and the medium slightly larger at 34 cm by 22 cm. All you have to do is style it with a neutral outfit (think black, grey and white to let the bag stand out) and you’re all good to go.
