Carlo Fellini strips away the fuss and frills with its timeless Claire Clutch.
The clean design is so elegant. We might have seen similar hard case clutches from other fashion houses, but few come at such a low price. It doesn’t seem like Carlo Fellini’s skimped on the materials. The closure snaps securely, and the metal frame is perfectly polished. There’s even a chain strap ready and waiting for the moment the drinks and canapés are passed around.
I only wish the Claire was a few inches wider, as it’s a struggle to fit party essentials inside it. However I feel bad asking for more at this price point. We’re certainly seeing value already!
Not all Claires are created equally though. While the satin ones look more sophisticated than we might expect for $42, the glossy leatherette alternative seems cheap and tacky. Its polished surface might work during the day with jeans, but it really appears inferior next to its sisters.
If you want to add class to your after five wardrobe I’d forget the imitator and indulge in one of the satin alternatives. In silver, gunmetal, navy, or this basic black the Claire is an elegant way to complete any evening ensemble.
