The raffia tote returns

Proof that affordable can still look polished, this structured shoulder bag has a clean tubular shape that pairs well with oversized shirts and jelly sandals. The woven finish keeps it breezy without slipping into full-on beach mode.

Sleek, slouchy, and surprisingly versatile, this tote hits that sweet spot between practical and cool. Its minimalist branding and soft structure make it an easy choice for daily rotation. Whether it’s farmers-market trips or midweek meetings, this one does both.

Yes, the name’s cheeky, but so is the design. A jhola-style raffia crossbody edged with a pastel-hued piping that brings a polished, Instagram-ready finish, this is ideal for days when your outfit starts with ‘I have five minutes’. It’s light, soft, and big enough to hold your Kindle and a croissant.

Small in size but high on structure, this tote comes with a tight zigzag weave and a faux leather finish that reads expensive. The gold-tone charm adds a hint of play, but the clean lines keep it polished. Tuck it under your arm and you’re ready for that coffee run.

Beaded details upgrade this brunch-appropriate handheld raffia number from casual to camera-ready when the sun goes down. It’s compact and textural and looks sharp with crisp summer whites.

Raffia goes grown-up with leather detailing and a clean silhouette—this leans minimal but is barely basic. The contrast base adds polish, while the woven body keeps things relaxed.

Handwoven from Toquilla straw, a fibre native to the Ecuadorian coast, this tiny tote is basically a vacation in bag form. The petite size makes it great for evenings or off-duty days. Style it with a cotton sundress, and you’re good to go.

This French brand embodies the very definition of boho Parisian style, so of course they had a version all their own. With its angular shape and leather accents, this smart shopper is polished without overdoing it. The roomy size means it will fit your swimsuit, sarong, makeup kit, and even your laptop if you're working beachside. 

Don’t be swayed by the size of this woven top handle; it may look small, but it packs just the right amount of chic for any outfit. Crafted from a natural straw-effect fabric which delivers on the look and feel of raffia, but without the risks of fraying or staining, it’s a true investment piece.

The design for this Fendi shopper was first launched in 1997. Now its being downsized and reimagined in natural raffia fibre sourced from Madagascar and crocheted with the iconic FF motif. With its structured frame and removable linen inside pouch, the bag balances softness and polish in that quietly confident way Fendi does best. Talk about taking a classic and making it current.
