Fashion experts are predicting the comeback of large bags and so the countdown to the mini bag is over. Before we switch to XXL shoppers next year, our little must-haves will make another big appearance on New Year’s Eve.
You’ve probably heard that small bags are on the decline on the trend radar and that hobos, tote bags and spacious shoulder bags are making a comeback. After a really long era of mini and micro bags, this was almost foreseeable. But there will always be a place in our hearts reserved for tiny bags. Because when we head out to do our New Year’s Eve looks and make-up and hit the dance floor at the turn of the year, these models are our absolute favorites.
In the clip: What your bag reveals about you
Die It-Bag der Stars
If you want to be inspired by Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez and Kylie Jenner for your New Year’s Eve outfit, you need a crucial key piece. A structured, asymmetrical bag. This year’s mega trend for diagonally cut bags was triggered by a newcomer brand that has taken the hearts and wrists of stars by storm. The best thing about it: The celebrity favorite is even affordable.
The Aupen brand was founded in 2022 by Skye Tan and is a vegan, sustainable brand with studios in Brooklyn and Singapore. Each bag bears the seals of approval from several environmental organizations and EU certification bodies. And everyone who is self-respecting in Hollywood wears an aupen.
The characteristic asymmetrical designs are available in a variety of colors and variations, so you can find the right bag for every New Year’s Eve style and every party program. How about the Nirvana bag that Taylor Swift brought to the afterparty of the “Saturday Night Live“-season premiere. The It bag on one hand, Travis Kelce on the other. Or should it be Kylie Jenner’s Fearless Noir, Karlie Kloss’ Fearless Re-Edition, or the light blue version of Zaya Wade’s Nirvana?
When it comes to the stars and starlets, one model clearly wins the race, the Purpose bag from Aupen is the most popular design and also one of the most affordable. Hailey Bieber and Olivia Rodrigo already have them. But we have a clear New Year’s Eve favorite. The Purpose Ice is a special edition of the original with glittering fringes, just like Selena Gomez wears.

The trend bag on TikTok is an old friend
As is currently the case, TikTok is picking up on a Y2K trend when it comes to bags and turning it into a retro hype overnight. This happened again with the cult bag from Longchamp. Or rather, with a byproduct of the iconic colorful bags. The brand’s Pliage Pouch is actually a beauty bag that is supposed to ensure order within the large, spacious pockets – actually. In 2023 it became an absolute must-have accessory.
Longchamp fans have recognized the bag for what it really is: a super cute micro version of the iconic Le Pliage in which you can easily store your wallet, keys and lip gloss. It is also significantly cheaper than the original size, but is also available in seven colors. Particularly cool: The viral mini bag is also available in the brand’s sustainable line, made from recycled materials.
Thanks to the removable straps, you can also swap the handles for longer straps and style it into a micro crossbody bag or pimp the bag a little for New Year’s Eve. Alternatively, Longchamp also offers the Épure XS or the Box-Trot XS in luxurious leather. There’s also the Le Pliage XTRA XS, a micro bag that’s slightly larger than the repurposed cosmetic version.

Die Quiet-Luxury-Bag
Vanilla girls have taken over TikTok and functional, practical clothing has taken over the catwalks. Normcore has returned and the elegant but pared-down old money look has been declared the trend of the year. So if you want to invest in a bag at the end of this year that you can carry through all seasons in 2024, then a minimalist mini bag is the right choice for you.
Hard-wearing, practical and everyday models made of durable leather and in colors and shapes that can be styled in a variety of ways have already had their moment this year. The models from Polène, Kate Spade and Celine are suitable for everyday wear as well as for parties. Our absolute favorite are the Normcore bags from Smaak Amsterdam. Models like Lara, Daisy or Mell are available in many trendy colors and are super chic on New Year’s Eve. The next morning they go just as well with a cozy oversized outfit at New Year’s brunch. But the absolute eye-catcher is the Mini. Available in eight different colors and wearable as a handbag or crossbody bag, it is a subtle eye-catcher for your quiet luxury outfit.

Die Statement-Bag
For all supporters of the counter-movement who celebrated maximalism, dopamine dressing and hyper femininity this year, there is also a statement bag for a statement look on New Year’s Eve. This year, numerous designers have presented tiny bags with huge buckles and thick zippers, with eye-catching rivets, chains and the like. All you have to do is choose one.
For example, we have the models from Miu Miu with worn faux leather in a used look and snap hook detail. The King of Mini-Bags Jacquemus introduced several versions of the new Le Bisou bag on the runway, some adorned with padlocks and others with gold carabiner straps. Coach also has a special Studio Baguette model, decorated with cool crystal studs that will add a touch of punk glam to your New Year’s Eve look.

The extra small dance-proof bracelet bag
Admittedly, the market for bracelet bags is manageable – still! We predict an upward trend for the coming spring. Until now, bracelet bags mainly meant mini models with ring-shaped handles that you could hang on your forearm. But now we’re seeing a growing trend toward bags that can actually be strapped around the wrist like a bracelet.
So if you choose one of these models on New Year’s Eve, you have two advantages on your side. On the one hand, you would still be early on in an emerging trend. Secondly, you would have both hands free and plenty of freedom of movement for all the dance moves you want to pull out during the evening.
Louis Vuitton has the Party Palm Springs Bracelet, which is actually more of a bracelet than a bag. But at least the keys and bank card fit into the micro wrist backpack designed specifically for partying.
The Bracelet Pouche from Loewe has already been spotted on various red carpets and is currently being hotly discussed on TikTok. Because you can wear it as a handbag, as a clutch or around your wrist and it fits significantly more than in other micro bags. So if you want to be flexible in your styling for the New Year’s Eve party, grab the hyped quick-change artist.
Our favorite because it’s in the middle of the other two models in terms of size and goes perfectly with party looks is the Nano Fendigraphy. The smallest of all Fendigraphy sizes is advertised as a “Bag Charm”, but It girls and boys don’t wear it as a pendant on its big sister bag, but rather as a bracelet. Although it can also work fantastically as a regular mini bag in hand, with a strap as a shoulder bag or even as a crossbody. As numerous “What fits in my Bag” clips on TikTok prove, the volume of the Fendigraphy is enough for the essentials for a wild night of partying.
