Its raffia exterior feels tactile and unfussy, featuring that signature slouchy Wandler silhouette that hangs perfectly on the shoulder. The natural beige hue channels a raw-edged elegance, making it the type of piece that transitions effortlessly from an art gallery viewing to a casual café setting. Subtle details, including a smooth magnetic flap closure and tonal leather trims, anchor the bag firmly in luxury territory.
The Penelope’s shape moves with you, adapting its drape whether worn high and tight or allowed to hang low thanks to the adjustable strap. Its roomy, softly structured body accommodates essentials like a wallet, phone, and small notebook without overwhelming your silhouette. Because it is lightweight and unstructured, it layers naturally with boxy blazers or knit midi dresses, working across professional and social hours without ever forcing a vibe.
Wandler’s knack for understated sophistication is evident in the Penelope, which taps into the current fascination with hands-free silhouettes and woven textures. It serves as a cooler, more sculptural update on the classic straw bag—an effortless, editorial accessory that remains a staple in high-summer wardrobes and stays relevant as the seasons shift.

Recommended Care
-
Avoid moisture and direct sunlight to prevent the natural raffia fibers from warping or damaging.
-
Spot clean gently with a soft, damp cloth if needed, but ensure you do not saturate the material.
-
Store in the provided dust bag when not in use to protect the bag from dust and environmental wear.
-
Do not overfill the bag; maintaining a lighter load helps preserve the intentional slouchy silhouette.
-
Keep away from rough surfaces to minimize the risk of snags or abrasions on the woven exterior.
Style Tips & Versatility
The Penelope is a masterclass in “low-key luxury,” providing a textural focal point that softens sharp, modern tailoring. For an editorial daytime look, pair it with an oversized boxy blazer and wide-leg trousers. To lean into a more relaxed aesthetic, let it drape over a knit midi dress or a diaphanous silk slip. The adjustable strap is the key to its versatility, allowing you to shorten it for a sophisticated under-the-arm carry or lengthen it for a casual, hands-free crossbody style as you move from morning errands to evening rooftop social events.
