As far as oversized bows go, I’m generally running the other direction. It’s not that I dislike bow details, but I do tend to steer clear when the detail is taking over like on this Moschino Cheap and Chic Giada Bag.
Although it’s hard to look past the giant Minnie Mouse bow on the beige-colored Giada, a closer look will reveal other appealing details. For one, the otherwise ordinary color is enhanced by the patent sheen that makes it almost look more copper than beige. That carefully coated leather is also a slightly textured, high quality material one would expect from Moschino. Buckled details on the handles are a nice addition, too.
Oddly enough, the three different color options available for the Giada handbag offer three completely different bag styles. The beige brown is shown here whereas the other versions have no bow feature on them: the black with zippered details and the red with a buckled front flap instead. It’s strange that they’re all considered the Moschino Cheap and Chic Giada bag when their only common theme is the patent sheen on the leather. However, it is always nice to have options.
Specifically regarding the beige, bow-covered version, this purse has a nice amount of storage with a center zippered compartment splitting the interior and pockets on each side. As usual, I find the term “chic” to be the only word in the brand’s name that I deem fitting seeing as how most shoppers would consider $1,155 nowhere close to “cheap”. However, Moschino has a reputation for their designer quality handbags, and the Giada is nothing less than what you’d expect from them.
