When it comes to must-have designer bags, there’s no denying that Gucci is one of the most desirable. Founded in 1909 by Guccio Gucci, the brand has long been a byword for style.

With that in mind, I’ve done a deep dive to find the most popular Gucci handbags in high demand to help you discover your forever bag.

10 Popular Gucci Handbags
I’ve rolled up my sleeves to uncover ten popular Gucci handbags that are beautiful, practical, and a little bit unexpected.
1. Aphrodite Mini Shoulder Bag
Review
Looking for a staple statement piece that will turn heads and stand up to the test of time? The Aphrodite Mini Shoulder Bag is one of my top picks with its bold design and vibrant colour.
This mini bag has a microfiber inner lining with a suede-like feel to the touch, and the thick orange shoulder strap makes it comfortable to carry.
I love that this bag lets the colour do the talking (much like Versace bags); it has gold-toned hardware and the iconic Gucci double G logo; Simple, chic and oh-so-Gucci.
Dimensions:
21cm x 12cm x 4cm

2. Jackie 1961 Small Natural Grain Bag
Review
A bit of ’60s glamour goes a long way, and the Jackie 1961 has a classic shape, a clean silhouette and a vintage vibe that’s really delightful.
Durable, natural grain leather in emerald green gives this bag a mature feel, reminding me of the style of Tory Burch bags without rendering it plain.
The gold-tone hardware elevates the overall appearance, giving it a little bit of glamour, and I particularly love the unusual yet chic piston closure that makes this bag pop.
The one downside is that it’s a little too small to be a work bag unless you carry just the basics on a daily basis.
Dimensions:
27.5cm x 19cm x 4cm

3. Padlock GG Medium Shoulder Bag
Review
Sometimes, the classics are the best; taking inspiration from the Gucci archives, the Padlock GG Medium Shoulder Bag is timeless.
It is made from vintage beige and ebony GG supreme canvas, boasting white leather detail and polished gold-tone hardware. The result is beautiful, casual and practical.
While it’s big enough to use daily and will hold all your essentials, my favourite feature of this bag is the vintage lock closure with an actual key to open it!
Dimensions:
35cm x 23.5cm x 14cm

4. Horsebit 1955 Shoulder Bag
Review
Is there any colour that screams sophistication, like dark cherry red? I don’t think so, and the Horsebit 1955 Shoulder Bag is all about old-time glamour.
Smooth, rich leather, a classic, rounded edge silhouette and a discreet gold-tone horse-bit decoration boost the vintage vibe with a microfiber interior.
I love this bag as a day-to-day option, but there is one possible drawback: this is not exceptionally water-resistant due to the canvas. Also, consider the Kate Spade bag collection.
Dimensions:
25cm x 18cm x 8cm
Style:

5. GG Marmont Small Matelassé Shoulder Bag
Review
The GG Marmont Small Matelassé Shoulder Bag gives a hefty dose of early ’00s nostalgia with its padded, patterned leather body.
Cream leather, gold-tone hardware, and the iconic double G icon on its front make it a statement piece for casual daytime events.
What about the brass tacks, though? Well, it has a high-quality microfiber lining, an adjustable leather and chain strap, an interior pocket, and a secure zip closure.
Dimensions:
24cm x 13cm x 7cm
Style:
739076 AAA9F 7519

6. GG Matelassé Handbag
Review
Bigger isn’t always better; sometimes, a small piece gets more attention, and the GG Matelasse Handbag is an eye-catching bag and undeniably Gucci.
Embroidered Matalasse leather is complimented by gold-tone hardware, and the double G logo adds glitz. I love the embroidered double G’s on the body!
This head-turning small bag will look perfect on your arm on date nights and evening outings.
Dimensions:
19cm x 13cm x 10cm
Style:

7. Blondie Small Shoulder Bag
Review
If you want a quirky designer bag for casual dates and festivals, the Gucci Blondie Small Shoulder Bag is a beauty in my book.
Made from high-quality green leather, it has an embossed interlocking G logo on its body and a fun tassel decoration.
One exciting feature of this bag is that it’s part of the ‘Gucci Authenticity Tag’ collection. This adds a unique facet to the experience of your bag.
Dimensions:
21cm x 15.5cm x 5cm
Style:

8. Diana Small Shoulder Bag
Review
The Diana Small Shoulder Bag has elements of vintage Gucci bags, but don’t worry – the result is seamless, classy, and unabashedly Gucci!
As a small, textured leather shoulder bag, it is impeccably chic. It has a classic silhouette, bamboo top handles, and a detachable chain shoulder strap for convenience.
For all its subtlety and discretion, however, you will still find the iconic double G logo on the front of this bag; it’s subtle and classy.
Dimensions:
25cm x 16cm x 9cm
Style:

9. Diana Small Tote Bag
Review
There’s nothing like a slice of classic Italian glamour and sophistication, and the Diana Small Tote Bag works for any occasion and could even be your fancy designer commuting bag.
Gold-tone hardware and the iconic double G logo complement the cream leather and polished bamboo handles.
It’s the detachable shoulder strap that I really love. The buttery yellow and forest green stripes give it a bit of pizazz and elevate the bag from a simple tote.
Dimensions:
27cm x 24cm x 11cm
Style:

10. Attache Large Shoulder Bag
Review
A slice of ’00s style, the Attache Large Shoulder Bag is very Sex in the City. This bag looks how I want to feel: casual yet classy, fun but sophisticated.
The design of this bag was pulled from the Gucci archives, and its distinctive crescent moon shape certainly makes it stand out from the crowd.
Heritage hardware, iconic Gucci GG Supreme canvas and a detachable strap come together to make this feel like a modern piece with a vintage soul. An ideal airport bag as it is enormous!
Dimensions:
35cm x 32cm x 6cm

Sheree’s Top Pick
GG Matelassé Handbag
The GG Matelassé Handbag is my top pick because it’s incredibly versatile and oh-so-Gucci! The embossed double G, gold bling and thick shoulder strap work for any occasion.
Conclusion
Each of these popular Gucci handbags is beautiful and practical in its own way, but there’s no denying that some styles are more versatile than others, so choose carefully.
What I love about Gucci bags are their chic designs and high-quality materials. If you’re anything like me, they’ll make you feel super important, too!
