Summery alternatives to straw or raffia bags that will not bobble dresses

[ProcrastinatorsAnonymous]

I love the look of straw / raffia shoulder bags in the summer, but have ruined one too many summer dresses with them - the friction of the bag rubbing against my hip causes even quite hardy material like cotton to bobble. Are there any alternatives that feel summery like straw / raffia, but don't have the same bobbling issue? Thanks!

I found this at John Lewis & Partners. What do you think?

I recently bought this for an upcoming holiday abroad. I love it!

Sorry link didn’t work. It’s the Aspinal neutral pouch £195 at John Lewis. A bit pricey but a lovely light colour for summer.

I have one similar to this which is smooth. Just search "round basket bag".

Thank you! Is it the leather one? That’s lovely, but I’d like to find something that looks more like raffia / straw texture - but without shredding my clothes!

Do you remember where you bought yours? Lots of the ones coming up look like they could potentially cause the same bobbling??

For some reason Fablou rings a bell.

ETA Yes it was the Aya bag from Fablou but they only seem to have black now and you seem to have to buy the Luna bag with it. It might be worth contacting them or at least you would know what to search ebay/Vinted for.

The COS summer bags are made of a paper like material that seems to be a loft softer than raffia/straw.

I recently encountered the same problem with a pricey Sézane bag on holiday, I was really surprised (and annoyed!).
