Ever since we got to know about Telfar - the designer who has Beyonce's stamp of approval, it has become quite the 'It' brand. Telfar Clemens started this fashion house that rose to popularity after the rise of activism and social awareness. But the one accessory known as the "Telfar shopping bag" but nicknamed as "Bushwick Birkin" has been one of the most popular accessories to get hold of in the fashion space. They have been celebrated for their simple yet luxury looking design and relatively affordable prices.

What Makes Telfar Shopping Bags So Popular?
While fashion's 'It' bag has been the micro-mini bag for quite some time now, we should be happy for a tote making it to being the hottest accessory yet again. Telfar makes a variety of products, from shoes to apparel, but none are quite as popular as the cult-favourite Shopping Bag. The Telfar bag represents much more than your average, eye-wateringly expensive tote. People are crazy for the bag because it embodies more than just a fashion statement - it stands for inclusivity. Clemens itself is a queer individual who established a 100% unisex fashion line way back in 2004 in NYC. Telfar is creating unisex clothing, which challenges common notions of masculinity. The bags' supporters are on the highest echelons of celebrity from Oprah Winfrey to Selena Gomez. Even Oprah called it "one of her favourite things" in 2020.
