If you’ve seen the term “onion bag” on social media and wondered, “What on earth is that?” — you are not alone!
No, it’s not a wallet shaped like an onion (although that would be pretty stylish, right?). The onion bag trend will take over fashion in 2025, mix oversized bags with a layered, dimensional style perfect for embracing maximalist fashion this winter.
Say goodbye to small bags! The oversized bag is back in a big way, and the onion bag trend is leading the charge. It’s the hottest way to elevate your everyday bag, tote or tote – and it’s got the stylist stamp!
Corina Molina, aka @cocotakes (creator of the viral purse), is a huge fan of the onion bag moment.
“The best thing about the onion bag is that it’s completely customizable—it’s all about what works for you and your style,” she explains. “Start with a chic, high-quality bag that’s big enough for all your seasonal essentials. Think about what you need on the go.”
“The key is to throw in your favorite items that reflect your personal style, so you’re ready for whatever comes your way,” she adds, mentioning how she loves to throw in travel size beauty products like a bold lip, mini fragrances and hair clips “for quick touch-ups”.
