Do the words 'net bag' ring any bells for you? Maybe some. That might be because you saw your grandparents carry groceries in netted carry-all bags or get a fresh delivery of fruits in one of these. So this next piece of news may just blow your mind. The humble net bag is set to be one of the hottest fashion accessories this season.
Also known as the fisherman bag, you can identify this handbag by its rope-like strands which are woven together to create a bag that's come to be defined by its holed look which leaves none of its contents to the imagination. We always knew fashion was funny but we never imagined, even for a second, that a bag which is associated with carrying fish would be its next It accessory.
And like every trend that reaches the height of popularity, it is being picked up and styled by influencers and fashion enthusiast. Here it is lending a laidback touch to a mini skirt, sweatshirt and glitzy pumps.
This net number gets a Parisian flair with polka dots and straight fitted mom jeans.
It even captures the whole 'afternoon in Sicily' vibe to perfection in this hazy sun-filled look with muted neutral tones.

Designer houses too couldn't resist the charm of the net bag. Goyard launched the limited edition Aligre bag, which is a mix of raffia mesh and leather. More shocking is Vetements' version of the trend. Their Granny Medium Bag costs approximately Rs. 2,49,000. Cue the gasps. Of course, many brands like Staud do offer more affordable net bag variants. Or you could just call your granny and ask her to lend her trusty net bag.
