If Fruits were Designer Bags

We can spot fashion anywhere—sometimes, in our fruit bowls. As I scrolled through my favorite consignment site, I couldn’t help but wonder, ‘if bags were fruit, which would they be? Better yet, if fruit were bags?’

In a random burst of—silly and, well, eccentric— thoughts, I compiled a comprehensive list: 

  • Strawberry – Prada
    • Worldy, daring, romantic! Irresistible delicacy coupled with sultry ferocity—the strawberry is the airport crush you never forget. Prada embodies effortless allure, polished with an irresistible softness.
  • Pear – Hermes
    • Pears are intentional, sophisticated, and subtle. Characterized by a daring curve and muted beige tone, the pear is none other than the classic Hermes bag. And, like Jane Birkin, pears embody a playful air of mystery.  
  • Cherries – Kate Spade
    • Bold and a little cheeky—the cherry is your cool older sister. Vibrant yet intentional, cherries are the hot commodity. Like cherries, Kate Spade bags represent liveliness through droplets of blazing flair. 
  • Plum – Dior
    • Ooo la la! Plums radiate effortless allure. Much like a plum, Dior bags exude an air of romantic sophistication. Dior feels like a perfectly ripe plum: timeless, sensual, and dripping with quiet elegance.
  • Grapefruit – Versace
    • Sharp, invigorating, and unapologetically bold—A Versace bag is the essence of a grapefruit. A Versace bag awakens the senses, leaving behind a lingering glamour that is both commanding and unforgettable.
  • Apple – Bottega Veneta
    • Crisp and cool—the apple secretly holds a sweet burst of flavor marked by the slick exterior of an apple  Much like the sharp flavor of an Apple, the precise stitch of a Bottega Bag makes an undeniable statement that commands attention. 
  • White Peach – Givenchy
    • Soft, delicate, and slightly mysterious. Givenchy has the same refined sweetness as a white peach — understated, but unforgettable. 
  • Jackfruit – Louis Vuitton
    • Jackfruits are big, bold, and hard to miss — just like an LV monogram. It makes a statement. Whether you love it or find it “too much,” you cannot deny its presence.
