Stuart Weitzman Pyrex Clutch | Bright Patent Purse with Satin Lining

Posted on: Aug 30

Vintage materials are all the rage at the moment, as this patent purse with retro Pyrex handles from Stuart Weitzman goes to show.

In bright patent shades of magenta or yellow, this small clutch has an eye catching design. The handles are fashioned from a disk of stylish Pyrex, once the domain of the 50s housewife and now the latest designer material. To further emphasize the artsy handle, the patent leather is a graduated shade working towards the disk.

As with all handles like this, I worry that they may look good but be uncomfortable to hold. I also can't work out whether I like the exceptionally glossy nature of the leather, although that is largely personal taste!

What I do like, however, is the coordinating patent trim that defines the shape and adds straight lines to a curved piece. I also enjoy the cream satin lining that adds an air of sophistication to the design.

All in all this is a cute and daring evening purse with a couple of interesting, if not practical, features.
