SCOUT Debuts New Spring Collection in Conjunction with the Brand’s 10th Anniversary

SCOUT by Bungalow, a leading supplier of fashion and lifestyle bags, accessories, bins, coolers, and travel items marks its 10-year anniversary with its largest and most ambitious collection to date, including 21 new styles, 25 new patterns, and over 360 new items.

The most notable line extensions include a wide array of cleverly-named small and large accessories such as the ‘Cash ‘n Carry’, the ‘Type A’, and the ‘Beauty School Pop Out’, among others. The additions range from wallets and change purses to makeup and jewelry cases in practical shapes that feature well-placed pockets and handy closures. Other new items include a reengineered duffle and corresponding garment bag; additions to the stackable storage lineup; a new multi-pocketed insulated tote bag, as well as a capsule collection of high-end bags fashioned out of an all-new brushed matte fabric.

As for color and pattern statements, spearmint, lapis, and coral make their collection debuts as well as an elaborately detailed ombre paisley, a vacation-themed toile, and an extensive selection of cabana and toweling stripes. The new line’s 25 patterns are organized into five merchandisable color stories, characterized by their reference to spring and summer themes: Garden, Boardwalk, Vanity, Cottage, and Estate. Addressing demand for a neutral complement to the line’s tapestry of color and pattern for urban and professional lifestyles, the new collection also features a solid black coated cotton bag and an accessory assortment called ‘Blackout SCOUT’.

Of the inspiration for Spring/Summer 2014’s colors and patterns, co-founder and creative director Deb Johns notes, “This collection exudes a refreshing dynamic, bringing vibrant color together with timeless and trend-setting patterns. Think of seaside cottages to summer gardens, or the allure of strolls on iconic boardwalks to the lush chic of summer estates. ‘Pretty meets contemporary’ became the seasonal focus. The Spring/Summer collection is energetically fresh and irresistible; there’s a perfect bag for every SCOUT customer.”
