Vintage Alexander Wang Woven Straw Leather Bucket Bag c. 2016 Black

Mid-2010s downtown New York: the studio is scattered with jet-black raffia, leather strips, and oversized hardware, the air thick with the pulse of Alexander Wang’s signature utility. This bucket bag catches that moment — black woven straw tightly encased in leather trim, its cylindrical shape drawn closed by a silver-tone grommeted drawstring and anchored by a ring of domed studs radiating from the base.

The body is structured yet pliable, balanced by an adjustable leather strap for crossbody wear. Inside, black fabric lining conceals a single zip pocket and a slip compartment, clean and spare, with no visible logos or branding — a deliberate restraint that marks the Wang approach. Silver-tone hardware throughout, from the studded base to the smooth, functional drawcord eyelets.

This piece belongs to the era when Wang’s bucket silhouettes, especially those trimmed in raffia and set with hardware, marked the summer of 2016 — the studded base placing it firmly in the lineage that defined his mid-2010s accessories. Minor rubbing to the leather trim, the woven body and hardware remain sharp.
