It’s that time of the year again when the seductress lures in colourful fingers, trinkets peeping out from trench coats and the profound glitter of gold, diamonds and silver in visible silhouettes of bags, clutches and purses glamorously strung from your gloves clad hands. The Fall Winter 2010 unveils the no mess look of straight line geometric boxes in our bags on one hand, and in the very next glimpse rejoices in paper bag relaxed cuts but predominantly maintains a monotone colourway.
Geometric precision:
The geometric lines of precision brings forth boxy silhouettes, square, rectangular and trapeze forms with neat clan of lines as is visible in this bright ochre tending towards orange leather bag with suede patch pocket by Fendi . With and edgy high is the grey bag by Jil Sander that hatches a grid of sheen with thin lines in dark grey and super thin handles. Louis Vuitton offers a very basic structured bag with contrasting handles and a dark melody of lacre colours along with the signature LV symbols. Ralph Lauren infuses masculine power to the checkered bag with lock and key fixture and school bag buckles. And here we have picked up from the ramp Indian designer Rohan Arora transferring print shots from epic movies on rectangular box bags with rope handles.
Clutch Fix:
The most sexy fixture accessory to walk along with you from evening cocktails to late night parties is your clutch. So here comes a bejeweled box clutch for the wild party night from Alexander Wang with vintage details and a skull lock with red eyes. And next we choose another box clutch from the house of Armani with absolute sheen and futuristic appeal in washes water colour effect. The gold trinkets and medallions and coins hang from this clutch by Dolce & Gabbana. It’s the snake’s skin golden clutch with long tassels by Gucci that set envious eyes for an eclectic evening. And an ikat fabric potli clutch with leather flaps by Missoni would provide the perfect companionship during the winter afternoons.
Minimal Obsession:
The selection suggests a cleanliness freak thoroughfare with minimal intermingling of lines or patchwork or any sort of ornamentation. Here is this exclusive grey in Balenciaga with small details at corners and sleek finish handles. And the woody finish leather bag with no zippers but edge support and double handles of varying length makes debuts from Burberry. The purple bag hold strictly on to the reins of minimalism but advocates a very dull plastic feel and chains arise from eyelets and small steel chips peep from the front flap. Back home we see pull out a similar design line from the collection of Rajat K Tangri in hot pink. And finally the extra luxe red bag oozes with glamour and claims to be the hottest commodity to beat the winter chills from Versace.
Relaxed Perch:
This definitely compliments the ever so straight tall lines for Fall Winter 2010 with relaxed structure but still with minimal, uniform or no embellishments. The tan leather draw string bag by Chloe is a sure traveler’s delight and has a very classic appeal. The black carry bag form Givenchy where the bag gradually molds itself into the handle is studded with black pearls in definite geometric grid. The Michael Kors vintage look washed leather substantiates with ample buckle and zipper details. The croco leather duffle bag from Nina Ricci gathers in tiny pearls and ornaments. And Stella McCarteney again brings an edgy look with an all encompassing grey studded bag with chain handles.
