Archive Medium Handbag Light Check

The Vivienne Westwood Yasmine Medium Archive Bag in Light Check is a beautifully crafted top-handle design made from hand-woven virgin wool Harris Tweed® — the iconic, legally protected fabric produced exclusively in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. Featuring a classic check pattern and structured silhouette, it blends heritage craftsmanship with signature Westwood detailing, including embroidered branding and a logo patch. Finished with twin carry handles, bumper studs and silver-tone hardware, it’s a timeless statement piece with a distinctly modern edge.

Why We Love It
This bag embodies everything we adore about Vivienne Westwood — tradition, texture and individuality. The Harris Tweed® wool gives it warmth and authenticity, while the Yasmine shape keeps it polished and architectural. It’s the perfect seasonal companion for women who appreciate craftsmanship and character in equal measure.

Agatha Style Tip
Carry it with a wool coat or neutral knitwear to highlight its texture, or contrast it with sleek tailoring for a balanced, elevated look. The medium size is ideal for day-to-day use while still making a statement.
