What's in a bag?

What's in a bag?



Does it matter what brand you are carrying or the color or the design or the size of the bag?


Moreover what do you carry in a bag?


Do bags make a person's personality?




A lot of people love clutches, especiall by native New York designer Fiona Kotur. The brand is small and independent, but the designs are the type of bold, self-assured look that you’d expect to see from a much bigger (not to mention much more expensive) brand. Kotur makes larger bags that stretch into the thousands of dollars, but its clutches are really where the company’s aesthetic shines, and all of the pieces on the Moda Operandi Resort 2013 pre-sale retail for $650 or less.



On the higher end of that price spectrum, you’ll find solid brass minaudieres embellished with snakeskin, sequins or glitter, plus larger clutches made out of striated inlaid perspex. For $295, there are a couple of embossed lizard options, and in between those two price levels there are all kinds of goodies to covet. 




The Louis Vuitton Haute Maroquinerie design rooms are only available in select Maison stores, and as best I can tell, that includes flagships in Paris, Milan, Sydney and Taipei, and will include Bond Street in London in the near future. Customers can pick from the five shapes pictured below in several sizes, eight types of ultra-premium leather (including crocodile) and more than 25 colors. The bags are then almost entirely handmade upon order to the customer’s specifications, and the client’s name is engraved on the interior of the bag. Louis Vuitton discontinued its special order program not long ago, and it appears as though it was in an effort to make way for this program, which will likely spread to all the Maison stores in the not-so-distant future.

LV love


Of all the Spring 2012 collections, all the pastels and brights and florals, it’s hard to name any one line that more thoroughly captured the light, airy idealization of the season quite like Louis Vuitton. The runway show show practically floated on its own, filled with white broderie anglais and crocodile bags in the palest shades of blue and yellow imaginable. We’ve covered the collection’s most notable pieces, from the light-as-a-feather Monogram Transparence to the lavishly expensive Crocodile Old Speedy Flap, but the rest of the collection yields some gems as well.
And thus, we bring you the rest of the Louis Vuitton Fall 2012 Collection. From leather-trimmed satchels in pale monogramed canvas to a few of the controversial basket bags we saw on the runway, this collection has a little bit of something for everyone. Personally, count me in for the bicolor Louis Vuitton Speedy North South, please. Check out all of the bags after the jump.




Summer Spring


Pre-fall collections are a beautiful thing. Not only do they give us something to talk about, look at and eventually buy during what used to be the awful, seemingly endless summer retail slump, but the clothes and accessories therein also tend to be exceedingly practical and wearable in a way that collections that have to turn heads on a highly publicized runway often aren’t. Pre-fall is like the industry’s best-kept secret for clothes you can wear and enjoy all year.
