Alexander McQueen’s line of Britannia clutches is completely iconic, and even after the designer’s death, the collection is producing variations that are interesting and new. This patent leather Britannia retains the designer’s signature aesthetic with its blend of shiny glam patent and punk rock skulls.
The gloss is so high on this patent leather that it almost looks like plastic. This gives the bag a very 70s glam rock feel, which when combined with the ornate skull clasp becomes a sophisticated hybrid of rock chic. The way the exterior has been pieced together, like patchwork, gives it a lot of dimension, and the seam detail shows the high quality of the craftsmanship.
This little Britannia is not for shrinking violets. It’s a statement-making bag for a woman with strong, bold style. Its petite size makes it a little less than ostentatious, but it will still be quite a conversation-starter with your favorite evening ensemble.
