Who would have thought a tote covered in stars could be so boring? Dolce & Gabbana shows that even a design house of exceptional pedigree makes the occasional misstep with this Miss Escape Star tote.
It’s not that the Miss Escape Star is a bad tote; it’s just so pedestrian. White stars against an inky black patent background make sense on paper, but in reality they appear kind of dull and a little bit childish. The tassels appear really out of place too, so I’m left feeling confused about the style statement Dolce & Gabbana is making.
Not even the interior can redeem this purse. The open top design makes accessing your precious cargo easy, but it also compromises security. We also don’t get the leather trim around the pockets that we expect from a high-end designer purchase. They’re little touches, but they’re the additions that help to sway us to part with our cash.
This is far from one of Dolce & Gabbana’s best efforts, yet it’s still charging us top dollar for it. $1222 is simply too much to pay for such a half-baked tote, no matter what its designer pedigree.
