We might not all have a title and handsome prince like Kate Middleton, but we can enjoy a little of the same indulgence with this Princess clutch.
This golden barrel purse is covered in twinkling Swarovski crystals. That’s surprising at this point; I might have expected rhinestones or cut plastic, rather than the genuine article. They wrap around the cylinder too, rather than being restricted to the front as we see in so many affordable bags. I can’t see any evidence of corner cutting, a practice which happily extends to the interior.
That’s where we’ll find a luxurious satin lining, practical deep gusseted pocket, and ultra long strap. This allows us to wear the Princess as a cross-body bag once the canapés and drinks trays arrive! This is a small purse with a structured design, so space is of a premium, but that’s not an uncommon trait for bags of this ilk.
Franchi hasn’t reinvented the wheel here, but it has made this classic styled clutch much cheaper than we’d expect. $278.50 isn’t exactly loose change, but we could expect to pay a four-figure sum if this purse bore the Judith Leiber name!
