At first glance, it took me a minute to realize that this Francesco Biasia is made from straw. The bright coral color nearly outshines the interesting texture of the Lillian Shoulder Bag, but the pattern holds its own and adds a summery touch to the handbag.
The woven texture isn’t the only material on the Lillian to make a statement. The bag’s double belt detail on the front is made from a patent PVC in the same pinkish red color. The loose, unstructured look of the feature imbues the purse with a casual vibe. I can just picture it going perfectly with a cotton dress and sandals.
Also contributing to visual interest as well as function are the braided belt loops, which hold the buckled PVC strips in place and are made from the same patent material. A single shoulder strap echoes the belted detail and attaches to the Lillian with gold-toned rings.
This Francesco Biasia bag doesn’t disappoint in its amount of storage either. In addition to several interior pockets, there is a center zippered compartment that splits the inside of the handbag in half and creates more organizational areas. For only $198, I think the Lillian delivers well on spring and summer style as well as practicality.
