Franchi reminds us that opulence doesn’t always been excess with this Queenie Clutch.
With its regal name you might expect the Queenie to be dripping in jewels. But instead it relies on understated style to make an impact. There are gems, but rather than large faceted jewels we instead see tiny crystals dotting the diamond quilting. That quilting is really the star. It adds texture to the satin body which is classic, but still striking.
I also love this muted gold shade, which is much more subdued than the metallic tone tends to be. There’s not a hint of brassiness in this shade, which makes it perfect for pairing with an elegant cocktail dress or formal gown. Then again, it probably wouldn’t look out of place paired with a casual daytime outfit either if you know how to travel light.
Even though you’d never call the Queenie large, it’s got a decent amount of space compared to many evening bags. It doesn’t matter if it gets too heavy either, as there’s a chain strap inside to ease the burden.
It might be fit for royalty, but Franchi has made this purse attainable for common fashion fans. You can add the Queenie to your collection for $130.
