Mulberry has always had that very British kind of charm. Not too loud. Not too trend hungry. Just beautifully made leather, timeless shapes and pieces that somehow feel polished without trying too hard.
This summer, though, Mulberry feels especially fresh. The icons are still there, the leather still speaks for itself, but the mood is lighter, more playful and very easy to style. Think charms, crochet, blue scarves, heat-proof sunglasses and summer bags with a little pop of colour.
Basically, Mulberry is giving us heritage with a holiday glow.
Mulberry’s celebrity history also helps the romance. The brand has long been connected with names like Alexa Chung, Kate Moss, Blake Lively, Olivia Palermo, Lana Del Rey and Cara Delevingne, with the Alexa bag famously inspired by Alexa Chung herself.
And now, there is even more reason to watch the brand. In March 2026, Mulberry announced Christopher Kane as Creative Director of Women’s Ready-to-Wear, with his first collection set to debut in September 2026 and arrive in stores in January 2027. So While Spring 2026 is still very much about bags, leather craft and fresh seasonal accessories, the next chapter of Mulberry is clearly getting more fashion-forward.
1. Bag Charms For Summer
Bag charms are having their main-character moment, and Mulberry does them in the most tasteful way. They add a little playfulness to a classic leather bag without making it feel childish.
Clip one onto a Bayswater, Alexa or Roxanne and suddenly your everyday bag feels summer-ready. It is the easiest way to make heritage leather feel personal, fun and a little more styled.
2. Crochet Bags
Mulberry’s spring handbag direction includes pieces like a seasonal crochet bucket, which fits perfectly into the current love for woven, tactile and artisanal summer bags.
A crochet Mulberry bag gives you that vacation mood without looking too beach-only. It can work with wide-leg trousers, a slip skirt, a crisp shirt or even a city day dress.
3. Heat-Proofing Sunglasses
Because summer styling starts with the face.
A good pair of sunglasses can change the entire mood of an outfit. Mulberry sunglasses feel like the kind of accessory you throw on when your outfit needs instant polish.
They are perfect for summer because they do two things at once. They protect you from the heat, and they make even the simplest outfit feel intentional.
4. Blue Scarves
A blue scarf is such an underrated summer piece. It feels fresh, clean and slightly nautical without becoming too obvious.
Tie it around your neck, your ponytail, your wrist or the handle of your Mulberry bag. Suddenly, the whole outfit looks styled. Blue works especially well with tan leather, white cotton, denim and raffia-style summer textures.
5. Pop Of Colour In Summer Bags
Summer is the best time to let colour in. And Mulberry’s bright bags feel wearable because the shapes are already classic.
A colourful Roxanne, Lily or small crossbody still has that Mulberry structure, but the colour makes it feel more playful. Think coral, green, yellow, blue, pink or anything that looks good against linen and sun-kissed skin.
Final Word
Mulberry is winning this summer because it understands balance. The pieces feel classic, but not boring. Playful, but not loud. Trend-aware, but still timeless.
From bag charms to crochet textures, blue scarves to colourful summer bags, this is the kind of edit that makes your wardrobe feel styled without trying too hard.
