Women's bags were made of rough canvas material, which led designers at the time to design a series of shopping bags and bike bags.

In the 1930s, the spatial development of Hollywood movies had a huge impact on the popularity of fashion. The bag decoration has a streamlined appearance and a good cabinet rack, with simple materials, simple and elegant.
In the 1940s, filled with gunpowder, bag decoration design emphasized practicality the most, and the trend of pragmatism was more influenced by military design.
