I’ve come to expect anything from retro to rocker to downright kooky from Betsey Johnson. When she’s not talking to the media about her desire to retire, this popular designer is busy creating styles to fit a variety of tastes.
Edgy rock-and-roll is definitely a look we’ve seen from Betsey Johnson before in bags like the Rock Star hobo. Although I generally like the vibe that a few well-placed, rocker-inspired studs bring to a bag, this Made In The Fade satchel seems more like the real thing.
The handbag’s lightly weathered leather material adds the perfect touch of nonchalant attitude to a somewhat traditional silhouette. The only obvious addition of rock-and-roll is the tiniest row of black studs on each of the handles’ decorative buckles, as if to remind us what style it is exuding.
In addition to the kind of edgy style that Kate Moss would probably wear, the Made In The Fade bag also has a hint of bohemian flair with its hanging tassel detail and perforated leather strips. It might not be dripping with fringe or made from crocheted bamboo, but I think it would still appeal to boho-chic women.
The Betsey Johnson Made In The Fade collection also comes in a bucket bag style or tote. This large satchel retails for $295.
