The Italian handbag market: a summary of trends and key figures
The Italian handbag market is a notable segment within the wider fashion accessories industry, with a range of consumer considerations influencing purchases, including practicality, aesthetics and brand prestige. The market is incredibly varied and is segmented into luxury, high-end, mid-range and low-end ranges, differing in design, size and materials, such as leather, synthetic and fabric. Although Italy stands out for its strength in handbag manufacturing, taking the lead with over 55% of EU production, domestic consumption has slowed as part of a broader trend of reduced spending in the apparel market. The industry faces the challenges of increased competition and the changing dynamics of the luxury and low-end market segments. Traditional producers must adapt to new distribution channels and the growing popularity of private labels.
Worldwide, the handbag market is worth over $45 billion, and is expected to grow at an average annual rate of close to 6%. North America accounts for a significant share of revenues, while Asia-Pacific is expected to grow rapidly. Italy exports mainly to high-income countries, with Switzerland, France and the United States being the main destinations. The value of handbags exported from Italy reflects the high regard for the "Made in Italy" label, with leather handbags accounting for the majority of exports. Italian handbag production has experienced some volatility, with dramatic rises and falls between 2010 and 2021, partly influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the sector rebounded strongly after the slowdown observed in 2020, demonstrating its resilience and growth potential. In terms of sales between 2010 and 2021, the sector showed an upward trend until the pandemic, and has since returned to prosperity levels similar to those before the pandemic.
With regard to Italian brands in particular, the country has a rich tradition of craftsmanship in the handbag industry, with a concentration of companies employing fewer than 10 people. While the number of Italian companies in the sector has increased, a recent trend towards concentration means that there are fewer companies but more employees on the market, indicating a process of industry consolidation. In Italy, domestic demand for leather handbags, which accounts for more than half of Italians' leather goods purchases, is outstripped by international demand, with Italian exports worth billions of dollars, of which handbags make up the lion's share. This demand, driven by foreign markets, underlines the prestige of Italian leather goods. Moreover, Italy's international reputation for high-quality hand products is a major asset for the global handbag market.
When it comes to handbag fashion, the market is dominated by a series of illustrious brands, each with a unique heritage and a devoted clientele that extends beyond international borders. These purveyors of luxury and style are not simply manufacturers of accessories; they represent the confluence of haute couture, heritage and unrivalled craftsmanship, setting trends for consumers and enthusiasts the world over. Let's take a closer look at some of the major players shaping the handbag industry.

1 Market Summary
1.1 Definition and presentation
The handbag market is part of the broader accessories market.
A handbag is a fashion accessory for storing everyday items (e.g., wallet, keys). It is a consumer product, intended primarily for women; however, some specific models are also available for men. Many features are taken into consideration when a consumer purchases a handbag: practicality, aesthetics, and even branding remain particularly important.
The handbag market is very diverse and can be segmented into multiple categories based on a variety of factors:
- Ranges or brands: luxury, high-end, middle-end, low-end;
- Shapes or sizes: clutch, small bag;
- Materials: leather, synthetic, fabric or recycled material.
In Italy, the handbag industry (manufacturers and distributors) is in excellent health, but faces a slight decline in handbag consumption, which is part of the broader cutback in spending on the clothing market by Italian consumers. Competition between more and more players is growing, and the two extreme segments of the market, luxury on the one hand and low end on the other, seem to be the driving pillars, thus to the detriment of all "middle" brands. Traditional manufacturers such as LVMH now have to deal, for example, with private labels. New distribution channels are also emerging, creating new opportunities for the industry.
