# Modern Jazzy Bag Collections Motif No. 3's Release Takes Cues from Jazz Culture and Abstract Art By Kalin Ned | Published 2018-04-24 | Luxury Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jazzy-bag References: [hypebeast](https://hypebeast.com/2018/4/motif-no-3-jazz-collection-bags) & [motifno3](https://www.motifno3.com/shop/ruby-red) Los Angeles-based brand Motif No. 3 ties fashion and music together by paying tribute to a revolutionary movement from the 50s and 60s with a three-piece capsule of ultra-fun jazzy bags. Capturing the essence of one of the most free-thinking and expressive music movements in history, the premium label references Free Jazz throughout its collection with well-curated and strongly geometric abstract imagery in vibrant color palettes. The Motif No. 3 capsule consists of a large sling bag, a smaller pouch and a medium-sized satchel. Each of the premium jazzy bag designs boasts a high-quality leather upper. The collection also features a 'Staccato' belt-bag that ties into the aesthetic of the drop not only with its appearance but also with its name. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.0/10 - Popularity: 16% | Activity: 7% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxury) > [Luxury Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxuryfashion) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Fashion-music Collab:** The collaboration of fashion and music can be further explored by brands, particularly to pay tribute to historic movements. - **Abstract Art-inspired:** Curating strongly geometric and abstract imagery in vibrant color palettes can be a creative way to design fashion articles and accessories. - **Premium Jazzy Bags:** The use of high-quality leather to produce unique and jazzy bags provides an opportunity for brands to tap into a niche market segment. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion Industry:** Fashion brands can look at opportunities to collaborate with musicians or pay tribute to historic music movements to appeal to a wider audience. - **Art Industry:** The use of strongly geometric and abstract imagery in fashion collections can provide opportunities for collaborations between the fashion and art industries. - **Luxury Industry:** The use of high-quality materials to create distinctive fashion pieces like the Motif No. 3's jazzy bags can open possibilities for brands to tap into the growing demand for premium products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Avant-Garde Handbag Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hanifa.md) - [Minimalist Leather Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leather-bags.md) - [Urban Geometric Totes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bao-bao-issey-miyake-1.md) - [Character Art-Infused Leather Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moynat-x-kasing.md) - [American Artist Bag Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eastpak-launched.md) - [Vibrant City-Themed Handbags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-city-tote.md) - [Tubular Supplemental Luggage Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jollying-messenger-bag.md) - [Revitalized Handbag Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marc-jacobs-stephen-sprouse.md) - [Couture Juice-Carrying Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caprisun-x-chet-lo-mango-passionfruit-bag.md)
