Whitney Houston is making headlines for all the wrong reasons these days as her comeback tour falls flat. Franchi’s clutch bearing the same name is a much more together diva.
It looks like the sort of thing Ms Houston might have carried in her younger, more sober days, with its sleek metallic satin, gently pleated for depth and drama. This elegant material is offset with a wide stripe of glittering crystals, just the right amount of bling for any diva.
A silver chain completes the look; a fixture which isn’t completely practical but more convenient than having no strap at all. Metal may have a tendency to dig into the shoulders of girls wearing cocktail dresses, but the chain really is the perfect complement to that metallic silk. You know what they say about beauty and pain!
The luxury continues inside with more of that lush satin. It’s relatively roomy by clutch purse standards, but you’ll need to be careful with what you put inside. An item misplaced will create bumps in the soft fabric, so give it the once over before you step out.
Franchi knows just how far to take it with the Whitney. It’s a beautiful purse, which unlike Ms Houston, sees when enough is enough.
