Not your typical drawstring backpack, the premium leather piece is offered in an unexpected shade. With Gucci's iconic logo on the front, this retro backpack features a black leather trim with drawstring shoulder straps for carrying. In line with Gucci's 2018 sports-luxe apperal, the vintage-inspired bag is a play on the classic drawstring look that was popular in the 90s. Straight from the Italian label's runway show, the accessory is a high fashion take on a casual and functional everyday item. This fuchia leather backpack elevates the look of sportier drawstring bags which are often crafted from nylon or canvas, and retails at almost $1,600. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.4/10 - Popularity: 78% | Activity: 76% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Luxury Designer Backpacks:** Opportunity for other luxury fashion brands to create unique and high-end backpacks that make a bold fashion statement. - **Retro-inspired Accessories:** Potential for fashion brands to develop vintage-inspired accessories, combining classic looks with modern aesthetics. - **Premium Leather Alternatives:** Space for eco-friendly fashion brands to create leather-like materials that are sustainable yet luxurious. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion:** Fashion brands could leverage this trend to incorporate high-end backpacks into their product lines. - **Accessories:** Opportunity for accessory brands to explore retro-inspired designs and offer unique statement pieces. - **Sustainable Fashion:** Eco-friendly fashion brands can focus on developing premium leather alternatives to cater to conscious consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Nomadic Luxe Canvas Backpacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/andiamo-backpack.md) - [Everyday Opulence Backpacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/151-stealth-backpack.md) - [Sophisticatedly Playful Backpack Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fjallraven-kanken-koncept.md) - [Pink-Themed Handbag Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/longchamps-le-pliage-xtra.md) - [Pet-Focused Luxury Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gucci-pet-collection.md) - [Bouquet-Themed Luxury Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flower-bouquet-bag.md) - [Contemporary Travel Backpacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bis-classic-backpack.md) - [High-Fashion Fanny Packs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fendi-x-porter-baguette.md) - [Glamorous Drawstring Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-fleming-drawstring-bag.md)
