Burberry’s Prorsum line is the hip little sister of the Burberry flagship collection. Personally, I prefer its innovative use of design and materials to the more staid and tartaned traditional range. This bamboo and leather clutch shows off its sensibility with aplomb.
The materials really make the bag here. The subtly dyed grape colored bamboo looks amazingly supple and leather-like, but still retains a bohemian edge. The dark brown woven leather strap gives a smooth textural contrast to the look of the bag, but also complements the nubbly surface with its woven edges.
The classic clamshell design of the clutch is perfect. The buckled leather straps are, luckily, merely decorative, and the full open top allows for easy accessibility. I don’t usually like oversized clutches, as they can be awkward to tote around, but the removable leather strap makes this one perfectly useable. With its top notch design and easy carryability, you really can’t do better for an almost everyday bag.
Even the $1,695 price tag isn’t unreasonable for the Prorsum line, although it is sadly out of reach for the masses.
