Bowling bags: reinvent your look with the iconic accessory that defines spring trends

Bags are the accessories that most reflect the trends of spring and every other season, subtly translating the mood of society at any given moment. That is why rescuing a mythical piece from the past to bring it into our time is also a faithful x-ray of the current mood, and this is what happens with the emblematic bowling bags.

The origin and evolution of bowling bags: the story of an iconic accessory

Bowling bags originated in the 1920s and are so called because they were created to carry bowling balls, thanks to their large size and sturdy structure. It wasn’t until the 1950s that they entered the world of fashion, thanks to major luxury brands such as Louis Vuitton. 

‘At Louis Vuitton, they were pioneers in the reinterpretation of the bowling bag, presenting for the first time leather versions that managed to maintain part of their original sporty essence and are still coveted around the world today.’

Sara Campello, Fashion Communication at Binnari Project.

Keys to choosing the perfect bowling bag

Today, bowling bags have earned a place in our wardrobes and few are those who do not have at least one inside. If you want to find yours, consider the following details to make the right choice:

• Designs: there are more classic models and other more modern ones, also more neutral colours and others with eye-catching prints. Minimalist designs are ideal for a more elegant style, while the more embellished ones add an extra touch of personality.
• Materials: Women’s bowling bags can be found in genuine leather, faux leather, nylon and other textiles. Leather offers durability and sophistication, while synthetic materials are more affordable and easier to maintain.
• Sizes and shapes: they range from compact for everyday use to larger for those who need a lot of space. Either way, their textured shape and flat bottom make them very comfortable and functional.
