We Know It’s Still Summer, But This Soon-to-Be Fall It Bag Will Be on Every Cool Girl Come September

By Swedan MargenJuly 15, 2025

I know what you’re thinking—it’s only July, so why are we talking or even thinking about fall fashion? I understand. However, for me (and I suspect many of you), fall is hands-down the best season to dress for. So every year, right around now, I start to dial back my summer purchases and turn my attention to what I’ll want in my wardrobe come September. And when it comes to designer bags, I already know my answer: The Row’s Bindle Three bag in suede.

In-the-know fashion people might already be familiar, but for those who aren’t: The original Bindle bag debuted in 2016 and quickly became a cult favorite. Its soft, unstructured shape, single seam, and effortless top handle made it the definition of quiet luxury. Recently, The Row introduced the Bindle Three—a new version with the same relaxed silhouette, but updated with a more structured top handle and a roomier interior.

Initially released in sleek leather this past May, the Bindle Three is now available in suede—specifically a deep chocolate brown and a rich tan—just in time to anchor your fall wardrobe. It hasn’t yet saturated the street style scene, but considering slouchy shoulder bags were spotted throughout the fall/winter 2025 collections (Think Chloé, Isabel Marant, and Gucci), and minimalist dressers everywhere love The Row, I’d bet it won’t stay under the radar for long.

What I really love about this bag, though, is its versatility. It’s elevated enough for the office (yes, it fits a laptop), relaxed enough for weekend brunch, and practical enough to double as a travel bag. So if you, too, are thinking ahead—or just love being first—keep scrolling to shop The Row’s Bindle Three bag, plus a few more of-the-moment arrivals from the brand.
