Having made multiple appearances during New York Fashion Week 2019 and being carried by the likes of Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid and Lisa Aiken, it is quite clear that the Moon Bag is this Autumn’s latest it-bag.
Designed by 2015-launched brand STAUD, the Moon Bag comes in the shape of a crescent moon with a curved handle and can definitely be considered a statement piece. The handle features a removable leather accent of the same colour as the bag which is embossed with a STAUD logo.
The Moon Bag is lined with suede and its main compartment is quite spacious. It can be closed with a magnetic closure, but unfortunately lacks security given that the sides of the bag are always open. That being said, small valuables can be stored in the zip pocket which is found at the back of the interior of the bag.
STAUD Moon Bag Materials and Colours
The Moon Bag is made from 100% cow leather and is available in plain, snake and lizard embossed leather. These are available in a range of colours including Black, Saddle, Cognac and Raspberry.
STAUD Moon Bag Sizes
The Moon Bag is available in two sizes – these are referred to as the Moon Bag and the Large Moon Bag. The two versions are quite different in size, with the Large Moon Bag measuring 10.5 cm wider and 13 cm longer than the regular version.
The full dimensions of the Moon Bag are as follows:
| Size | Dimensions | Handle Width | Handle Drop |
| Moon Bag | 29 cm x 33 cm x 8 cm | 2.5 cm | 17 cm |

STAUD Moon Bag Price
When founder Sarah Staudinger launched STAUD, her main goal was to fill the gap between high street fashion brands and high-end luxury designers. The price of the Moon Bag, like all other STAUD bags, reflects exactly that.
| Style | Regular Size | Large |
| Plain Leather | $295 | $395 |
| Snake | $325 | $395 |
| Lizard Embossed | $325 | – |
