There was no shortage of impressive handbags making their way through the Zandvoort paddock over the Dutch Grand Prix weekend. From luxury designer pieces and timeless classics to colourful and more unusual designs, there was plenty to catch Kym’s eye.
Not every standout bag in the Formula 1 paddock comes with a designer price tag. This tan shoulder bag from Primark’s Paula Echevarría collection features a crescent shape, gold stud detailing, and long tassels, giving it a relaxed, bohemian look.
This bright green Kind Bag certainly added a pop of colour to the Zandvoort paddock. Its distinctive crinkled texture gives it an unusual look, but what makes this bag particularly interesting is that the outer fabric and lining are made entirely from recycled plastic bottles.
This Michael Kors satchel brought a playful touch to the Zandvoort paddock. Finished in light cream, the bag features heart-shaped embroidery across the exterior, complemented by gold-tone Michael Kors branding, and the brand’s signature hanging MK charm.
This bronze Parfois shoulder bag was one of the more eye-catching pieces in the Zandvoort paddock. Covered in oversized metallic discs arranged in a fish-scale pattern, it caught the light beautifully and added plenty of texture and movement to an otherwise simple silhouette.
This Louis Vuitton x Takashi Murakami handbag was hard to miss. Part of a re-edition celebrating the pair’s famous 2003 collaboration, it transforms Louis Vuitton’s classic Monogram with Murakami’s colourful rainbow design.
This Louis Vuitton Speedy 25 comes from the brand’s Spring-Summer 2026 collaboration inspired by Wes Anderson’s 2007 film The Darjeeling Limited. The deep brown Damier Heritage canvas is decorated with playful illustrations of wild animals and palm trees, giving the classic Speedy shape a far more whimsical look than usual.
This Aston Martin Aramco F1 Team x BOSS duffel offered something a little different from the designer handbags spotted around Zandvoort. Finished in the team’s unmistakable green and white colours with prominent Aston Martin and BOSS branding, these bags are often seen in the hands of VIP guests around the Formula 1 paddock.
