Christopher Kane for Topshop Dress

Christopher Kane  for Topshop DressCreating a few clutch purses seems to have ignited Christopher Kane’s passion for accessories. The Scottish designer is planning to create a complete handbag collection that can serve women well throughout the year.

While the accessories promise to be classic, they’ll also have a contemporary edge which builds on the liquid clutch he created for his recent fall/winter line.

Kane told Vogue that the acclaimed purse reminded him of the pencil cases he used to own as a child.

This made us think that we should build on that platform, and create that bag that is a great classic and can go from season to season,” he explained.

Of course it’s early days at this point. Right now Kane is toying with the idea, but it may take some time before we see the concept realized. However I’ve always felt that Christopher Kane’s select accessories were the highlights of his fashion collections, so the thought of a complete handbag range makes me a bit excited.

However it remains to be seen whether Kane can sustain his brilliance across a complete accessories line. It’s one thing to make a few choice pieces, and another to make several show stoppers.

Are you excited at the prospect of a complete Christopher Kane accessories range?
