Fall is nearly here and the cooler-weather fashion trends are already swirling around.
Britain’s renowned leather goods designer has not missed the beat. Aspinal of London is no stranger to the spotlight; the brand’s popular handbags have been worn by celebrities like Gigi Hadid and Selena Gomez, and they remain a favorite at posh events like Ascot and Wimbledon.
Most recently, the brand has dropped its latest “Hudson Collection,” a new line of luxury where classic English craftsmanship meets New York City chic.
Shoppers can sift through an assortment of pieces for every occasion — bags, totes, pouches, and more. Each draws inspiration from the iconic Hudson River that runs around the city, and these new silhouettes might change how some people might feel about typical street style.
The brand has described the Hudson Collection as a remarkable nexus between steadfast traditional and fast-moving modernism.

“The collection takes the wearer on a journey through the city, from leafy Central Park to Grand Central Station, capturing the electric energy of a city that never sleeps and seamlessly merging it with the refined elegance of British luxury.”
Time moves fast in New York City and Aspinal of London understands that. The Hudson collection is designed for a fast-paced lifestyle. There are hidden pockets, internal slips, zip-tops, and multiple ways to wear or carry. Security and practicality are paramount.
“From morning meetings with views over the city to post-work cocktails on the Upper East Side, four bags come together to create a collection with unrivaled sophistication, elegance, and quality,” the brand added following the release.
As much as trendy street style is reflected in the construction of the Hudson Collection pieces, nature has also left a clear mark on the design.
The new drops are offered in deep, rich autumn tones inspired by the woods of Central Park and the wine bars of West Side; deep forest green, a full-bodied wine, and of course, a classic black, and tan for a more versatile, business-forward look.

The Hudson Bag is described as “charming and elegant as it is practical.” However, that doesn’t even come close to defining this level of craftsmanship and quality. The bag is handcrafted from small grain milled pebble leather, which evokes luxury in the form of a more relaxed, less structured silhouette.
There is hardly any accessory as handsome and metropolitan as a leather tote, and the Hudson Tote is as equipped for city life as they come. The large, spacious body offers ample room for all your belongings, and an internal removable pouch is sure to keep all your valuables secure.
For an effortless style, consider the Hudson Slouchy Crescent Bag. The modern crescent bag has been making its way across the runways and streets alike, beloved for its curvy body and nonchalant slouch. A slip pocket is the perfect home for a hard card case, headphones, and keys.
Something more compact, the “perfectly petite” crossbody tote, accommodates all your smaller items and looks lovely while doing it. The pouch is said to swing gracefully against the body, and it features a branded tassel drawstring for an added touch of sophistication and style.
Consider this a small piece of luxury. The Hudson Multi-Use Pocket Wallet “brings a touch of sophistication to the everyday,” and there is nothing we don’t love about it; the secure top zip design, practical card slots, and smooth, tanned leather. The signature golden hardware brings the leather to life.
