Fashion Clutch Purses in Autumn-Winter 2008

Tina Jane asked:




Strictly defined, a clutch purse isn’t overly large but is large enough to carry our daily essentials. The clutch purse tradition dates back at least to the early 19th century. During that time, “women of style” began carrying or clutching small handbags with them on their daily travels. These bags didn’t carry much-just a few essentials, like money and make-up. Today, clutch purses are all the rage. While, because clutch purses can become tiresome to hold, many of them come with small wrist straps for convenience.

Due to clutch purses’ graceful appearance, the original accessories going with evening dress have been lead into the daily wear and show a more typical fashion. Having looked trough some information about luxury brands’ shows, I collected some artistic clutch style. Let’s share together.

1. Bottega Veneta

It is the top quality ostrich leather and crafty appliance of metallic studs that bring a fresh texture to it. Besides, the decorated handiwork hermming detail emphasizes the consistent perfect craftsmanship of Bottega Veneta.

2. Christian Lacroix

As long as you see such an artistic colorful clutch which is just like a painter’s color palette, you have to acknowledge the great motivity and infectivity fashion got from art. Design of hard exterior with gray&white grounding, the colorful glazes and the hand paint pattern show the perfect between art and fashion.

3. Dries Van Noten

At first sight, Dries Van Noten gives us a feeling of ethnic flavor with a bit futurism. Its black smooth leather exterior serves as a foil to shiny jewelleries and multicoloured charm works in concert with the whole clothing. Even the design of briefcase pattern extends the clutche’s capacity greatly.

4. Chole

This season, the luxury rare python skin collections are in vogue. Like this Chole clutch with brown graduated python skin pattern. Its front flap signatured plate which has shiny metallic texture appears more decent under the decoration of the pattern and advances the fashion urbanity of the whole.

5. Emilio Pucci

Unlike other long clutch, Emilio Pucci chooses the pattern of tubo shape with strong feeling of three-dimensional space. The whole what is printed multicolored regular geometric drawing gives us a wonderful impact like a kaleidoscope. Addition to the amalgamation of retro hue and fashion bop elements, the visual effect is highlighted well.

6. Giorgio Armani

The decorated lambskin woven clutch shows a classical design through the artful change between soft warm tone and metallic tone. The black top closure is appropriately covered up the flaunty feature of the whole body and appears a low-pitched elegance.

7. Marc Jacobs

As you see, the whole is clear and simple, even appears a bit original Indian flavor with engraved plain stones. Besides, the light color expresses an American style.

8. Ragand Bone

I’m sure the dark blue clutch can make your sight bright. Chose from soft smooth lambskin leather, the body shows free and easy features. Getting rid of hale design, its particular envelop style imitates new livingness into the whole figure.

9. Versace

I like the tactility and femininity of soft cotton sweatshirt. In order to fit the flaunty character of Versace, the covered button is changed into a lock bar, and the improved chain shows a sign of luxury.

10. Viktor & Rolf

What a vivid eye-popping color it is! Yes, the designer selected scarlet color at pains. Under the reflection of the color, the front shiny golden logo tag becomes more dazzling. It is the perfect unite of futurism and retro. No matter where you are, you will be the focus by owning it.
