With its summery wicker finish and wintery fur trim, Forzieri attempts to make a bag for all seasons with this Capaf shoulder bag. Sadly though I think the designer has created an accessory which simply seems confused.
The black woven wicker has a classic charm and appealing gloss, but I’m not sure the fuzzy trim was the right companion for it. This luxurious looking pelt is lovely but it only appears out of place here, like it found itself tacked on to the wrong purse. Animal lovers will be happy to hear the gray hair is a synthetic material known as eco-fur, but it would have been much more appealing on more refined handbag.
This shoulder bag is mid-sized, so if you like to load up your handbags you may like to look elsewhere. Wicker is a fragile material with a rigid structure, so there’s no pushing it beyond its limited capacity. With some careful packing though you should be able to carry everything you really need with a minimum of fuss.
This Forzieri bag is relatively affordable at $227, but I can still think of many better ways to spend that kind of cash.
