Erin Lichy’s Bottega Veneta Woven Pouch

Night falls on the island in Episode 6 and Erin Lichy heads to the fire-pit lounge with Daisy Toye beside her. Her outfit: a white-and-black embroidered halter, white trousers and a black belt. Her bag: barely a bag at all.

It's a Bottega Veneta wristlet cosmetic pouch in black intrecciato, the house's woven leather. It's small and domed with a zip top, and a short wrist strap hangs off one end. Technically it's a makeup bag. On vacation, it holds everything that matters: phone, lipstick, room key.

Erin is loyal to the brand. She carried The Pouch, Bottega's big gathered clutch, to that very short lunch with Jessel in Episode 3. This one is a lot smaller and easier to hold onto.

Why it works: Black weave against all that white keeps the look sharp, and the dark leather echoes her belt. Nothing shiny, no logo, just the weave.

Get the look: This exact style is no longer on Bottega's site, but the brand's current Small Cosmetic Pouch has the same domed shape. Preloved, the wristlet version turns up at Rebag for well under retail. For less, Quince's handwoven Naomi Clutch gets the weave for $134.
