Alexander Wang has proven himself to be the designer to watch with celebrity favorites like the Brenda and Coco. Now with the Betty, he’s showing a more sophisticated side.
Black leather is still Alexander’s fabric of choice, but it’s got a more elegant feel here. The styling is a lot simpler than we’re used to, but the lush texture of buffalo hide saves it from being boring. Alexander Wang loves rock and roll zip and studs, but he’s used a little more restraint in this design. An abundance of antique brass gleams on the shoulder strap, but the body is kept clean and simple. It’s a more minimalist look than we’re used to, but it only adds to the Betty’s elegant good looks.
Inside, the Betty is divided into two handy compartments to make organization easy. They’re a little slender to be truly practical, but you should find enough room for most things you want to carry.
Alexander Wang bags are always gorgeous, but this is the first I’ve seen which could easily transition from day to night. It’s the kind of basic black purse which would look equally at home with dark denims and a sweater, or a sexy dinner dress.
