Savette’s Fresh Spin on Luxury Handbags for the Modern Woman
If you haven’t yet heard of Savette, allow me to introduce you to your next handbag obsession. Founded in 2020 by Amy Zurek, this New York-based luxury brand is quietly revolutionising the handbag game. The result? Handbags that feel like they were made for the here and now. Savette’s Spring 2025 collection is no exception, offering a lineup that is chic, with minimalistic designs that speak to the style-conscious woman.
For this season, Savette has focused on their three distinct design lines, the Symmetry, Florence, and Tondo. Whether you’re after a versatile pochette for a night out, a top-handle bag for the office, or a tote for the weekend, there’s something here that’s bound to catch your eye. And with sustainability quietly woven into the brand’s DNA (more on that later), these are bags you can feel good about carrying.
Here are the standout pieces that are already making waves in the fashion world.
The Symmetry Handbag Does It All
If you’re the kind of woman whose day can go from a morning meeting to an dinner date without warning, Symmetry is your new best friend. This line is versatile, with designs that range from sleek top-handle pochettes to spacious shoulder bags. The materials for this collection range from mesh, grained or smooth calf leather, and suede, and the colour palette (black, coffee, sepia, ivory, ecru, and camellia) is neutral enough to pair with just about anything in your wardrobe.

Amy Zurek, the brains behind Savette, puts it best: “Symmetry is about creating pieces that move with you, not against you. We wanted bags that feel like natural extensions of your life—functional, but never at the expense of beauty.” It’s no wonder this line has been spotted on the arms of fashion insiders and celebrities alike, from Emily Ratajkowski to Katie Holmes.
The Florence Is A Classic Bag Option
If you’re drawn to a classic style of bag but want something that feels trendy, the Florence line is where it’s at. Available In smooth or grained calf leather and in shades like black, ivory, and ecru, these pieces are designed to last (in terms of durability and style).

Savette
Florence Smooth Ivory Calf Leather Shoulder Bag – £1,850
Zurek explains the inspiration behind the line: “Florence is our love letter to the artisans who have honed their craft over generations. We wanted to honour that legacy while creating something that feels relevant today.” It’s this balance of old and new that makes the Florence line so appealing to women who appreciate a bit of heritage in their handbags.
Tondo Laid-Back Daily Luxury Handbag
If casual is your thing, then the Tondo line is your go-to. These bags (think totes and hobo styles) with materials like mesh and suede in colours that feel effortlessly cool (black, ecru, sepia, and camellia). They’re the kind of bags you can sling over your shoulder and be confident they enhance your look.
Savette

Lightweight and modern, it’s the perfect bag for a weekend wander or a quick trip to the shop.

Savette

Savette
Small Tondo Mesh with Smooth Ecru Leather Trim Tote – £1,150
“Tondo is about luxury that’s not intimidating,” Zurek says. “We wanted to create bags that feel like they’ve always been part of your life—comfortable, but still special.” It’s this ease that makes the Tondo line a favourite among women who want their accessories to be special.
Why Savette Stands Out in the Handbag World
In a market flooded with fast fashion and fleeting trends, Savette is a breath of fresh air. The brand’s commitment to creating “modern heirlooms” means that each bag is designed to be passed down through generations. And with sustainability quietly baked into their process (using responsibly sourced materials and working with artisans who’ve been perfecting their craft for decades) Savette is a brand that feels as good as it looks.
But it’s not just about the ethics; it’s about the design. Savette’s bags are minimalist without being boring, and full of style. They’ve been spotted on the arms of celebrities like Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Lady Gaga, and fashion insiders are already calling them the next big thing in luxury handbags. As Vogue UK noted in their Spring/Summer 2025 trends roundup, timeless, understated designs are having a moment, and Savette is leading the charge.
Why You Need a Savette Bag in Your Life
Whether you’re a handbag aficionado or just looking for a perfect piece for your wardrobe, Savette’s Spring 2025 collection has something for you. From the versatile Symmetry line to the heritage-inspired Florence and the laid-back Tondo, these bags are designed to fit seamlessly into your life, and stay there for years to come.
