There are a few key spring and summer events that help our editors keep an eye out for inspiration and trends, runways, of course, red carpets, after-parties and The Met Gala.
This year Hunter Schafer wore one of our team’s favourite red carpet looks of the night, which was a custom Prada gown inspired by Gustav Klimt’s “Mäda Primavesi.” Then, for the Saint Laurent after-party at People’s Bar in New York City, she changed into a custom dress by emerging British designer Steve O Smith and carried one particular accessory: Prada’s Wish Pouch.
That made me think back to the Italian luxury house’s spring and summer 2026 runway show, where the bag appeared multiple times throughout the collection, taking an essentials-only approach to dressing: phone, keys, wallet. The silhouette comes in three materials—silk, Re-Nylon, and leather—and in a range of shades including black, grey, orange and even pink.
Pouches also appeared at Loewe‘s, Miu Miu‘s, and Valentino‘s spring and summer 2026 shows and even at Celine‘s autumn and winter 2026 presentation—a nostalgic eveningwear aesthetic reminiscent of the dainty styles dating back to the late 18th century.
