About the The Bow Bag Large
Unveiled by then-creative director Sarah Burton around June 2022, near the end of her 26-year tenure, The Bow Bag is named for its bow-shaped reinforced top handles.
What affects this bag's resale value
- Sarah Burton's 2023-24 departure gives late-era Burton designs a 'final period' collectibility narrative
- Sold in both structured leather and more casual raffia versions, which resell very differently from each other
- Logo quilting and bow-hardware detailing distinguish it from earlier McQueen bag lines like the Knuckle and Jewelled Satchel

- Too early to say definitively — it's a late Sarah Burton-era design without the long resale track record of older McQueen styles like the Knuckle Duster Clutch.
