Balenciaga has a new take on a woven basket tote that takes the form of the new Bistro Bag. Crafted from varnished faux-leather strands, the Bistro takes inspiration from outdoor rattan furniture found typically at French bistros. This open tote comes with wrapped rolled handles, a customisable tag, a stud fastening at the top, a zipped pocket on the interior, and a detachable adjustable shoulder strap.

Though we are on the last leg of Summer, the super roomy Bistro is great not just for the beach, but also for your everyday necessities (including your work laptop), not to mention an excellent bag for your groceries too! Oh, and it’ll be the perfect bag for you to be traipsing around the Hamptons with, too!

The Bistro is available in café colours such as black, white, red and blue for the XS, S, and L sizes, with an additional Ash Brown colour for the S and L sizes.
