If you’re in search of a carryall that blends structural utility with sophisticated ease, look no further than Marc Jacobs’ new Dakota. Debuting this fall 2025, the collection introduces not one but two effortlessly chic silhouettes. A fixed J Marc logo belt, borrowed from the brand’s archival belt collection, elegantly anchors both styles.
Firstly, there’s the Dakota Satchel (SGD1150) that is as thoughtful in function as it is in form. Measuring a capacious 40 cm by 27 cm by 16 cm, it will certainly hold everything you need for work. In fact, it might even make an ideal carry-on bag for your next flight.
Especially since the magnetic closure design secures two interior compartments that come complete with practical pockets. An elongated top handle accentuates the bag’s effortless slouch, while protective metal feet add a refined touch of durability. Choose from either smooth leather in Black or soft suede in Copper, Dark Brown or Dark Plum.
If you prefer more of a tote-like silhouette, consider the Dakota Tote (SGD1500) instead. A deconstructed take on Marc Jacobs’ cult-favourite The Tote Bag, this boasts the same relaxed-meets-polished appeal, except reimagined with slouchy ease and a flap closure. Coming in at 41 cm by 29 cm by 15 cm, this stylish carryall will move with you all day.
The timeless style features a central zip compartment flanked by two main compartments, plus another zip pocket. While its dual top handles lend sculptural contrast, metal feet add a grounded finish. This version is available in either smooth Black leather or sumptuous suede in Copper or Dark Brown.
