The Bayswater is Mulberry's signature structured tote, introduced in 2003 and named after the London district. Designed under then-design director Nicholas Knightly, it is a roomy trapezoidal shoulder bag defined by its postman's-lock closure at the front, two rolled top handles, and heritage grained leather, and it became one of the original 2000s It bags. It has been reissued in many leathers and colors and remains the house's best-known design.
