The Louis Vuitton Neverfull is the must-have bag of the season – and H&M is selling a dupe for £1,370 cheaper
OLD fashion trends always seem to make their way back around again, and this time it’s the Louis Vuitton Neverfull.
The bag, which was first released in 2007 became an instant hit with fashionistas thanks to it’s timeless design and practical size – but soon fell away from the spotlight when teeny tiny micro bags became all the range.
But looking at social media it seems it’s comeback is well and truly here with the likes of UK fashion icon Victoria Macgraph and reality TV star Jessi Ngatikaura sporting the bag as of recent.
The designer bag, unlike many, is a practical tote with two handles so it can be worn over the shoulder or by hand and has so much room celebs tend to be spotted wearing it as their carry-on for flights.
While it is a practical choice – the £1,410 price tag is not, but H&M are offering a design to keep you ahead of the trends while being budget-friendly.
The Patterned Shopper features the same handles as the cult-favourite Neverfull so you can opt for comfort or style when wearing it out.
Coming in a black and brown design, the pattern on the bag adds similar detail like Louis Vuitton’s without the famous LV monogram.
The shape of the bag is also similar to the LV – smaller at the base and wider at the top and features a lock inside to keep the bag from falling open.
And the best part is that the bag is just £37.99 – a massive saving of £1,372.01 compared to the designer bag.
H&M bosses say: “Patterned shopper in coated fabric with a carabiner hook closure. Two sets of handles in different lengths, allowing you to carry the bag either on your shoulder or in your hand.”
Not only is it perfect for any weekend holidays – it’s also great for the winter to store your brolly or your scarf.
Happy shoppers were quick to share their thoughts of the bag on the website.
People gave it an average review of 4.6 stars out of five.
One person wrote: “Absolutely gorgeous bag!!! Really well made and worth every penny… very happy.”
Another commented: “Love this bag so much! Bought it for my holiday and gits so much stuff in, looks expensive too.”
“Fabulous designer style larger than average shopper. I’m so pleased with it and think I will get lots of use out of it,” penned a third.
Fashion editor reveals the 90s trends that should stay in the past
NINETIES and noughties trends especially have become a hit with Gen Z - most likely because they didn’t wear them the first time round. Here, Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale gives the rundown of some of the trends that have made a comeback that we wish did not.
Disc belts
“A hit with celebrities like Victoria Beckham and Blake Lively, the belt itself did nothing that a belt should actually do – it was a mere fashion statement, not a piece to actually hold anything up.
“And it seems it’s not just me who is enraged by its return, with many taking to TikTok to give their views, saying: ‘Oh no not the disc belt! I don’t think I have the energy for it a 2nd time around’ – I feel you.”
Jelly shoes
“After not being seen on shelves for decades, they’ve made a reappearance and this time they’re not just for kids.
“Coming in a range of colourful patterns, you can get them all over the high street in either flat or heeled versions.
“Not only will you look very childish wearing such shoes, but people will also need to learn that they aren’t the comfiest – blister plasters will come in handy.”
Pedal pushers
“The cropped knee-grazing trouser were all the rage in the 1990s and 2000s, but this time the model fash pack are all over them – with both Bella Hadid and Emily Ratajkowski wearing them out recently.
“The original IT girls, Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn and Brigitte Bardot helped make the trousers – also called Capri pants – look effortlessly cool and glam.
“Somehow this time round they don’t seem to be having that same effect.”
Meanwhile a fourth said: “This is a fabulous bag. Perfect for travelling. Looks more expensive in real life. Straps perfect. Can be worn shoulder too. Love the fastening detail. Washable. Highly recommend.”
“It was a present for my daughter and she loves it,” claimed a fifth.
Someone else added: “Love this bag. It looks very stylish and classy. It’s not cheap for H&M but also does not look like from H&M. It’s on the large size. This will be perfect for travelling as a carry-on bag and also for general use.”
