Kate spade used to be so stylish but now their logos are much bigger and their designs just aren’t as special as they used to be. You’re absolutely right that there are too many designs on their website and not many are the iconic Kate spade style.
exactly. I can't even pin point what IS their style right now. They are all over the place
I love Kate Spade - always have, always will. I have higher end designer bags too, but I do find myself reaching for contemporary brands like Kate Spade frequently. I don’t worry about them when I carry them and they’re pretty. Just because you don’t see Hollywood stars carrying the brand anymore doesn’t mean they’re not out there and popular with average, every day people. I see them all the time where I live. I just went to the boutique not too long ago, and it was plenty busy, as was the outlet store when I was there last. They may not have the hype, but they’ve got staying power, in my opinion. ❤
I'm glad you still enjoy KS bags, it gives me hope regarding the future of the brand. Thank you for sharing
I’m sorry to say, but since Kate died …. it’s just not the same! ❤
Exactly
She was not involved in the company for some time even before she died
I still think Kate Spade purses are cute. The novelty ones are hilarious and adorable! 💚
They have some of the cutest handbags out there. Especially the animal ones
Once the original creator is gone it’s never the same
THIS
I grew up at the same time when KS bags were THE IT BAGS. But I couldn’t afford them for a long, long time. Now living in Japan which for many years has been important KS territory, there are a tonne of bags out on the pre-loved market that allowed me to build a collection in no time. It may not be the cool brand it once was, but it will always have a special place in my heart. Plus, the ladylike with a splash of retro/vintage vibe is a perfect match to my own style. Thanks for the wonderful video, I’ve waited ages for a creator to come out with this!💚💚💚
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thank you so much for the supportive comment. lots of love :)
I love kate Spade bags and alot of their accessories i have a few of the bags .I remember the first time when she used to write for jane magazine and me seeing gwen paltrow in one of her bags in lucky magazine, she's one of my favorite designers i think kate spade will always be iconic ❤️. I was so sad the way she passed.💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
I miss Lucky magazine!
I use Kate Spade as my every day bags! They have really classy, modern styles still, so I like to use those, and it's fun to switch them up for the season or just every other week! Love my KS bags!
Love that!
I've always loved my KS bags. I have 4 for everyday use, and they've held up for years. I chose classic shapes and colors, so they've served me well and are still going strong. I have noticed what KS is putting out lately is more ''younger crowd'' -- so I probably won't be purchasing more from KS. It's adorable stuff, catering more to those under 25, but my '''cute'' days have been over for many years. As far as quality -- KS hasn't disappointed me. As far as ''COOL"?? Since I've never dressed for the approval of others, I guess I couldn't care less about ''cool."
I agree
KS still makes bags that even a woman over 50 can use! 😊 and a woman no matter her age can still wear cute things, of course, not the animal purses lol
I’m late 20’s and stumbled through this brand by accident on Pinterest. I was able to find the exact bag on poshmark. I honestly think the style has evolved and feels more avante garde than the previous things I’ve glanced at. Her older stuff fits my style now. I feel maybe it’s a matter of perspective that the style now is to showcase a different type of femininity. I just find it interesting hearing other people’s thoughts on this.
💚Kate Spade ♠️ I listened to the whole video but I still don’t hat what the deal is. I just think the zeitgeist of public taste is very fickle. I do enjoy the quality and value I get from my Kate Spade pieces.
it's definitely the zeitgeist and the brand's - somewhat - invisibility on social media
The peak of my Kate Spade journey was the Cameron Street line. I was OBSESSED with the shapes and styles they had with that collection. I also got a Sam bag when they brought them back for the 25th anniversary, and it just felt so special because it was a gift in the year that I turned 25 and I wasn't expecting it. I think shortly after a new creative director took over, and the entire brand seemed to go through a massive overhaul. It just hasn't had the same sparkle it once did. Sure, I do have two of the Knott satchels which came after the overhaul, but I actually find they haven't been holding up as well as my older Kate Spade bags. Truthfully, I just wish they'd go back to their roots. 💚
I'm rooting for the Kate Spade renaissance
sending designer products to the outlets and bargain retail stores such as marshall’s, tjmaxx etc is what destroys the brand image.
they don't feel luxurious anymore
💚I still love Kate Spade jewellery design but the incident by Kate several years ago also affected the brand.
Very well done video, thank you!
As a 20 year old, Kate Spade is a bag I buy for my Mom and Mother-in-law. I've never even considered buying one for me because I've always seen KS as mature. The new fun collections are changing my mind.
it is very interesting to me that younger generations see KS as mature, but we see it as playful :D
I have about 4 bags..... would buy one each time I visited the States.... sorry that she passed away so early.... perhaps the brand needs a new management? I would love to see it here in Europe more.... also, perhaps without Kate Spade is the reason the brand has not expanded... it needs new designers.... without falling into the trap of raising the prices to match big brands... that's not her style.... stay true to her desire to reach young bright women who are sure of themselves, with quality merchandise.
I think Kate's passing took a toll on the brand. And they are still in the recovering process
These r great bags.. i wish KS was cool again 💚
Me too!!
I adore the Kate Spade brand
Vintage Kate Spade -The best
Oh no! not Kate Spade! I always did admire the design.
they are still admirable, but not as often as they used to
💚
I still love Kate Spade. ♠️
I've always loved KS. Always will. I don't care if it's the it brand or not though as long as it stays and keeps it's same cuteness.
Every so often I go back and watch Kate Spade's videos her interviews. She seemed like a very nice person. I was given a small wallet years ago but never used it. I put it away in a box but I will begin to use it. 😔
💚💚💚💚💚I used to love Kate Spade. I don't really think it was any big thing that turned me off the brand, just nothing was catching my eye and I kind of forgot about them
There are so many great brands out there these days. And Kate Spade does not stand out I'm afraid
yes very much i keep buying the but i really miss the iconic spade on its bag
💚
What do you think about Dooney and Bourke?
Any opinions on Marc Jacob and The Tote Bag?
I'm thinking about making a video on Marc Jacobs soon
💚 If The mental initiative actually does something then they are no longer tone deaf and I can feel ….This is Kate Spade
Kate spade is the new coach... The bags are okay but for younger people they look tacky and dated.
Its a mom's bag, they need to do an 180 if they still want to be around. And get new desingers...
Its okay to be a mom bag brand but they are the low tier ones.
Like the neverfull from LV is a mom bag FOR SURE. But the brand isn't.
What would you pick between a random kate spade and a neverfull?
❤
Actually just bought a couple of vintage ones on eBay, the ones with the spade/heart twist lock that I thought was iconic and don't know why they don't make bags with that anymore when it should be a signature for the brand? But then again I've never owned a super high end handbag so maybe I'm just basic haha
Oh, I remember those locks! They were so cute
Agree that Kate Spade is quite saturated, but for bags. Once I got the Margaux, which was the only one bag I wanted I drifted away, no longer checking what's new in that department. But I'd say for clothing is still a nice option. I guess the brand kinda lost itself with Kate's passing.
I agree. Kate's vision was the main driving force
I loved Kate Spade products, but now, when I see the name/ logo, I’m just filled with sadness. I haven’t bought any KS products in ages. May she Rest In Peace
Kate Spade also sells pleather bags that are advertised as leather on their website. I bought one and once received, it felt and smelled like pleather. Interior tag confirmed that it was indeed NOT real leather. I called the company and was given an apology and a partial refund. I was told that they would correct the mistake on the website. However, I checked back a few weeks (or months) later, and the bags were still being advertised as leather bags. I have also inspected obviously pleather bags in Kate Spade stores that the sales reps claim is leather. 🙄
I didn't know about this. Thank you for sharing
I used to enjoy the brand. I don’t like that tapestry bought it. The quality of materials is lacking. I still have Kate Spade Saturday bags. So fun. Now it’s just cheap. I have stopped buying years ago.
I agree that the brand's quality is not what is once was. I miss old Kate Spade, it was so fun and worth every single penny
Green heart
❤💚
Kate Spade produces beautiful designs 💚💚💚, not unlike Balenciaga that produces ugly, over-priced garbage
You're absolutely right about Balenciaga :)
Suena que no te dieron visibilidad cuando los posteaste. Y tal vez esperabas más de la marca como rsultado que los mencionabas
I adore Kate Spade but lately its not the same. Quality is also an issue
I'm stunned you didn't even mention her death and that being a huge reason why her brand is declining. The brand was build on an image of optimism... but she died of suicide, very much the opposite of optimism.

Here in Italy I didn't see such an hype for the brand in past years. It'n not luxurius nor elegant, Just "pop and young".
I think they leaned a bit too much on the "pop and young" part. And it was a mistake
The sad thing is , just the name of the brand sirs waves of gloom in me , and this made me stay away from it.
Honestly? I find the bags for Kate Spade mostly very boring these days. And too much for what you’re getting if it’s a basic design.
Exactly. In the past, the brand used lovely prints and patterns, and with two-tone colors and so on. Now most bags look like designer-bag dupes and with dull/safe colors. Or bags with boring, mature-style monogram.
It is sad to see a brand, which I once loved, is falling. 😢
They lost their charm
Never was into Kate Spade. It's not my style.
Rip
The designer unalived herself so now the brand name is creepy.
Kate is gone so is her brand.
It defo was never a cool girl or prestigious brand.
Oh, come oooon!
