Alexander Wang has sort of a trunk theme going on this season. Oddly, though, this is the only bag that actually looks like a trunk to me. The effect is really cool on the Jade, but honestly, I’m not sure how I feel about it as an actual, usable accessory.
The combination of materials on the Jade is extraordinary. There’s no actual colors involved, just varying shades of white, but the texture keeps the look super dimensional. Plus the rose gold hardware is an amazingly bright and eye-catching touch.
The Jade is like a little mini steamer trunk. As an object, I think it’s amazing, and I love the idea of it lying half-open on my dresser. As a handbag, however, I’m not really so sure. It’s kind of awkward and clunky to be carrying around, especially on a tiny wrist strap. Overall, I just think that Wang’s thinky side got the better of him, and while the Jade is very cool, it’s not really that practical.
Some women might be willing to make the $795 investment for the sake of quirkiness, but I’ll be saving my money until Wang’s next release.
