Everyone loves a classic top handle bag, all the better if it comes in a timeless silhouette that will never go out of style. These 5 styles from some of your favourite luxury houses fit right into this category, and there’s good reason why they continue to be as popular as the day they were launched.

And because we all know black bags are as safe as it gets, perhaps neutrals might be something to consider (you know, the beiges, browns and greys), as they can go from the boardroom to the brunch session with ease. Think corporate wear to simple ensembles like a tee and jeans, you just need to decide which of these 5 best suit your budget and personal style.

01 – Dior’s evergreen favourite is none other than the Lady Dior (SGD7200), the boxy classic that continues to charm the fans since its debut in 1995. The quilted-effect Cannage stitching and ‘D-I-O-R’ charms are signatures that define the bag, and it is also a true icon that should have a place in every bag wardrobe.

02 – The Bolide 31 Bag (SGD12,400) is as underrated as it gets, designed back in 1923 with the hallmark zip fastener which was brought back to France by Émile Hermès’ travels in America. A handbag that comes without any logos or signature hardware (unlike the twist clasps found on the Birkin and Kelly), the half-moon Bolide is still a recognisable icon even from afar, which just affirms its classic status.

03 – There’s something really comforting about this warm taupe hue on the Capucines BB (SGD7600), especially when it’s paired with the detailed tortoiseshell logo element which adds a graphic contrast to the fine Taurillon leather body. Measuring some 27 cm wide by 18 cm high for the BB size, this is one that’s great for all your daily outings.

04 – Moynat’s Réjane BB (SGD6900) is another celebrated classic loved by many, all thanks to its sleek curves and elegant silhouette that’s made for the modern lady. Crafted using the finest leathers, the Réjane consistently scores top points in terms of design and workmanship. And she is quite the looker too.

05 – The Galleria from Prada (SGD3300) may be the most ‘workhorse’ style in this line-up of classics, and over time it has become a forever icon at Prada. The Saffiano leather has proven to be one of the most resistant (scratches, occasional spills) leathers of all time, and the enamelled metallic triangle punctuates the exterior without looking overly loud or obtrusive.
