Regular readers will know just how much Who What Wear editors love London-based brand DeMellier, and it’s easy to see why. From their contemporary take on timeless silhouettes to their commitment to sustainably sourced materials, they are not only a hot topic in our group chat, but are also regularly spotted on the arms of Instagrams best dressed. Just when we thought it couldn’t get better than the brand’s now iconic New York tote, I stumbled across a brand new style in the new-in section—the Hudson handbag, and I am convinced that once word gets out, this bag is about to be everywhere too.
The Hudson collection compromises of five colours (so far), and is a tall, structured top-handle roomy enough for all of your essentials. In true DeMellier style, it comes in a grained leather and a (gasp!) luxe suede iteration too—perfectly designed to sit in crook of your arm, be carried from the top, or even slung over your shoulder with the hidden shoulder strap. Could this be a stronger contender for “the perfect everyday bag”? I’m inclined to say so.
As the proud owner of not only the DeMellier Tokyo bag but also the Capri basket, the Hudson is next on my hit list (should it stay in stock for long enough). So consider this your warning—good bags don’t come along often, and if you’re in a “new season new bag” kind of mood, keep scrolling to see and shop DeMellier’s Hudson bags in every colour, and to see more of our favourite styles from the brand too.
