the fisherman net bag (so named for its modeling after a traditional fishermans net) is also known as a French grocery bag. the two i have are slightly different than what is commonly known as a fishermans net bag due to their having a more structured bag inside the netting. but the overall look is similar, and i feel more functional for what i keep in my handbag.

Now, woven bags made from soft materials like vegan leather are having their moment. They exude natural elegance and are an effortless complement to any outfit. No matter how classic or expressive you like to dress, a woven bag will always add a touch of character to your wardrobe.
