Fashion meets practicality in the return of the fanny pack, the must-have accessory of summer 2017. Remember the nostalgic vibes of the ’90s? Saturday mornings spent indulging in sugary cereals while watching cartoons, roller skating birthday parties, and a time when Donald Trump was just a reality show host—those were the good ol’ days.
While some trends from the ’90s are gone for good, others are making a triumphant return. Take the fanny pack, for instance, once a hallmark of questionable ’90s dad fashion.
In recent years, music festival enthusiasts have been embracing the practicality of these bags, but their rise to mainstream popularity can be credited to celebrities like Bella Thompson, who have been spotted sporting them around town. As someone who likes to keep snacks at the ready without the hassle of a swinging purse, I am all for this revival. And it seems like Instagram agrees, with influencers flaunting their stylish fanny packs everywhere.
There’s a vast array of options available, from vintage finds to high-end designer pieces. For those seeking something a little more luxurious, consider this $200 Fenty x Puma model or the Burberry clutch that attaches to an exquisite Italian leather belt, priced at nearly $3,000.
Rebranded with names like “butt bag,” “bum bag,” “belt bag,” or “waist satchel,” these accessories, once relegated to the realm of fashion faux pas, are now back in vogue. With the resurgence of mom jeans and crop tops, it’s no wonder that fanny packs have found their way back into our wardrobes. Now, if only we could also see the return of those colorful windbreakers!
