Eckhaus Latta, the label helmed by Mike Eckhaus and Zoe Latta since 2011, has finally stepped into accessories. This month, the brand—best known for pushing fashion’s boundaries on the runway—introduces its first-ever handbag: the Snap. It’s that piece you’ll want to wear until it molds to your shoulder, appearing just a touch lived-in even when fresh out of the box.
Over a decade in, Eckhaus Latta’s approach remains uncompromising. The Snap’s design echoes what they’ve always done: quietly experiment. The lambskin silhouette, free of big logos, slips into that unassuming sweet spot between a sculptural shape and a piece you actually need. Just a subtle blind-embossed mark and barely-there studded detailing appear on the handle. The bag comes in four classic shades—black, brown, green, and red—and the brown is available only through the label’s own site, priced at $650.
They captured the launch with a new campaign by Michael Hauptman and art direction by Eric Wrenn. The images feel like a natural extension of the brand’s identity, which continues to evolve—most recently seen in the Spring/Summer 2024 collection—yet never loses its original spirit. The Snap is available online now. It’s the kind of bag that doesn’t need an introduction, but here it is.
