Minimalistic unique bags for <$1000

[myst8]

Sure, I love LV but of late I am attracted to minimal, unique designs. (No logos/ obvious patterns).
I am now looking at brands like Coccinelle (Love). I like some designs by Mulberry and the Whipping Post Tote.
Does anyone have any other suggestions? (No Coach, Kate Spade or Marc Jacobs please).

Sage Femme, Mansur Gavriel, RTH, Sophie Hulme (distinctive hardware, but otherwise simple).

I agree with leechiyong! I really like Mansur Gavriel for minimalistic bags! You can also consider the new Mulberry Bayswater.

I know you said no Coach, but this is pretty sleek

Haerfest seems nice. Some styles have suede linings, too!

Cuyana?

I'm a fan of Mulberry because of its minimalist style and price range, and I think my next purchase will be a Mansur Gavriel. That said, also consider Fossil and a Korean brand I particularly like is Bean Pole.

Maybe you will like pb0110 or Danse lente? I don't own them so can't speak of quality though

Annabel ingall has great bags!

Ugg bags are pretty minimal and I also just ordered a Massaccesi that looks very much like. BV cervo hobo. I totally understand what you mean. I've been feeling the same way.

Scandinavian brands are known of minimalistic style, for example, Lumi, Tiger of Sweden, Ecco for around $300.

Celine Trio Small. Not sure if it is < $1000 but close.

Another vote for Mansur Gavriel bags! Especially their mini bucket bags, so versatile and timeless!

I'm surprised no ones mentioned Longchamp I owned a Coccinelle a few years ago - loved it, very hardy work bag.

I also love unique bag designs!
Building Block, X Nihilo, and Danse Lente are pretty unique yet minimal. Charles et Charlus seems really nice and classic with clean designs. Skagen is on the lower end in terms of price. Eudon Choi seems to have really cool designs, but they seem a bit hard to get in the US. These are all around $500 too, which is great
Other minimalistic/unique design brands: cueroandmor, strathberry, lautem, baggu, nisolo, creatures of comfort, lotuff, TL180, trademark, milma, von Holzhausen, NO/AN, elleme, deadly ponies, vereverto, vasic, clare v, little liffner, marsell, ceri hoover

Do you know the style name for the red one? TIA
