The year was 2005. Marissa Cooper was the world's biggest style star, Sienna Miller and her collection of denim were redefining street style and every IT-girl was clutching a Balenciaga Motorcycle Bag (now known as the Le City). As someone who lived through this era, and poured over every magazine editorial revealing how to 'get the look', I can attest that boho fashion truly reigned supreme. It was an era in fashion that emerged alongside the democratisation of the internet. A serendipitous quirk that ensured a level of cultural saturation we had yet to experience. The post-Y2K iteration of boho indeed held the collective conscious in a chokehold.

Now, 20 years on, boho has finally made a well-deserved resurgence into the trend cycle; reintroducing us to waist-length hair, gossamer dresses, biker boots and lace. And the latest boho staple to reemerge? The slouchy boho bag.

A quick Google Trends search shows that after years of flatlining interest, 2025 has shown a spike in searches for boho icons like the the Chloe Paddington and the Fendi Spy. In fact, many trend hunters are scouring consignment stores looking to track down an original 2000s era boho bag. But, for those without the time for vintage sleuthing, the boho bag is certainly making a return to current collections where you can find a new interpretation of these modern classics.
