Francesco Biasia leaves the 60s far behind with this hobo that’s much more sophisticated than the standard hippie fare.
The Alice has a little hobo slouch, but you can see she’s a girl of refined tastes. The flap top design is timeless, and the beige color a classic neutral. The contrast stitching adds structure and interest. The effect is elegant, if not altogether compelling.
But don’t dismiss the Alice because she doesn’t push fashion boundaries. She’s a lot more practical than you might imagine at first. The design is a lot smaller than the average, but it packs a real organization punch with three divided compartments equipped with their own zippered pockets. There’s also an open pouch for stashing your cell phone or PDA.
At $390, many bag lovers may dismiss this purse as a little dull. After all, that money could buy us something much more fashionable and fun. But if you take a chance on the Alice and her classic style, she’s destined to become a wardrobe staple.
