Suede bags are the undisputed It-accessory of the moment. A staple of the Noughties, the suede accessory made a bold comeback for AW24, and in 2025 becoming an essential for It-girls everywhere—from Bella Hadid, who was spotted with the Coach Brooklyn Tote, to Dakota Johnson, who gave her stamp of approval to The Row’s suede hobo bag. This flavour of month in the suede bags arena is the DeMellier New York Midi Tote—and Katie Holmes just co-signed it.
