18 Best Designer Bags Under $2000 Worth The Investment

Looking to add a new stylish luxury bag to your collection? If you’re on a budget, check out these 18 best designer bags for under $2000.

Unlike the bags found at fast-fashion stores, designer bags are crafted from the highest-quality materials, making them last for years or even decades. With this said, many luxury houses keep increasing the prices of their best-selling bags once or twice per year, making a lot of them unaffordable for many shoppers.

If you’re not quite ready to step into a Chanel or Hermès boutique and part ways with upwards of five thousand dollars, take a look at these 18 great designer bags under $2000 that can be yours today.

The Best Designer Bags Under $2000

1. Celine Mini Triomphe Bag

The gorgeous Celine Mini Triomphe bag ($1,300) oozes Parisian chic and is just perfect if you are looking for a handbag that will look effortlessly stylish with any outfit and will really stand the test of time.

This Mini Triomphe is crafted from shiny black calfskin leather, for a luxe look, and then embellished with gleaming gold CC logo hardware, engraved with the Celine brand name. The sleek bag is fitted with an adjustable leather shoulder strap, that can be worn across the body and on the shoulder.

The front flap opens to an interior lined with black leather and partitioned so you can easily keep everything organized. This bag is available new for $1,300, or there are lots of gorgeous second-hand options available on Fashionphile.

2. Saint Laurent Toy Loulou Bag

One of the best designer bags under $2000 has to be the Saint Laurent Toy Loulou Crossbody bag. This crossbody bag is made from quilted leather and has the signature metal YSL initials on the front flap. What makes this bag unique is the fact that the strap can be removed and it can be used as a clutch for fancier events when you don’t want a strap interfering with your fierce outfit.

It has a magnetic snap closure, two main compartments and card slots inside, and comes in over five different colors (depending on the season). We love the classic black with gold, followed closely by the white and beige.

We love the versatility of the Prada Re-Edition 2005 Re-Nylon bag, which is perfect for both day and night!This handbag is crafted from regenerated nylon which is created from recycled, purified trash from the sea – so this bag is not only stunning but sustainable too.

This Prada bag also comes with a detachable zipper pouch for any small items you need within easy reach.

Thanks to its large size, adjustable strap and handy interior slip pockets, the bag is also perfect for traveling. With this said, the bag also comes in a large size ($595) if you’re looking for even more room to pack your travel essentials.

The Gucci Dionysus bag is one of their most iconic, and best-selling, handbags because of its unique and stunning design.

The structured bag is available in a range of different sizes and made from different materials, but we love this super mini version, which is available for just $990 and fits perfectly with the mini bag trend that is so popular at the moment.

The chic bag is crafted from GG supreme coated canvas, for a classic Gucci look and durable finish, and then decorated with sparkling silver hardware. The best part of this bag is the curved tiger head closure, which references the Greek god Dionysus who is said to cross the river Tigris on the back of a tiger.

 The Saint Laurent Rive Gauche Tote Bag comes in a few different finishes, the most popular ones being the black canvas and the off-white and tan canvas fabric. 

This bag can fit your life and more, making it an ideal bag for traveling, for diapers, or for the office, which makes this one of the best designer bags under $2000. As it is canvas, you’ll have to be careful not to spill any drinks or liquids on it, which is why the black version of the bag is best for moms.

The bag features the brand’s text logo on the front, along with the “Rive Gauche” text, which is an ode to the left bank of Paris. It has accordion panels, rolled leather straps for carrying, and a pocket on the inside.
