Lanvin Le Genereux Soir Silk Bag | Chic Pale Pink Silk Clutch With Wrapped Chain Strap

Posted on: Mar 30

Lanvin is the oldest surviving couture house in Paris. Everyone thinks that it's Chanel, but Lanvin predates Chanel by ages. So, all the fashion that we think of as French that we also associate as Chanel actually has an earlier precursor. You can totally see those Parisian roots coming through in this clutch.

The pale burnished pink of the silk is kind of to-die-for. It's so subtle and fleshy that it will be flattering with a lot of ensembles. Personally, I would only wear it with black, because I find the color combination so irresistibly chic and classic that I wouldn't want to muddy it with other colors.

The rectangular shape is pure pared down elegance, and is perfectly accented by the chiffon wrapped chain strap. The black satin bow embellishments balance out the softness of the pink bag and the sheerness of the chiffon perfectly.

This bag is basically the perfect evening bag for an upmarket ensemble. Unfortunately, it comes with the upmarket price of $1,120.
