panier

Bicycle side basket

A panier is a basket, especially one of a pair carried on either side of a pack animal or mounted on a bicycle.

The word comes from French for bread basket.

In fashion history, paniers were side hoops or frames worn under skirts to extend them at the hips, creating the exaggerated silhouettes of 18th-century court dress.

Also spelled pannier.
